Tax credits & college

Hi folks, does anyone know if tax credits will still help with your childcare costs if you are studying in further education? I plan to return to college 2 days a week in September whilst working 15 hrs a week, I've tried googling it but can't seem to find anything useful as it only seems to mention higher education help or help for parents under 20 years old . Obviously I would get help for the 15 hours work but will they pay towards my childcare while I am at college?

You need to work at least 16hrs to claim childcare help. College isn’t considered to be work. If you increase your hours to 16 you can claim for childcare costs.0
