Pension and housing benefit

My mum is currently receiving universal credit and housing benefit. She's going to get pension benefit and housing benefit from 2022. She speaks basic English. Will she still have to go to English classes and computer classes with applying for work? Or will the English classes and computer classes be no more?
Also I apply her work.

I'm guessing those classes are aimed at making herself more employable currently. one she is a pensioner she will have no work searching commitments so I'm guessing they will stop.0

Are you sure she is getting Universal Credit and Housing Benefit? Normally help with rent is part of Universal Credit. There are very few situations in which somebody can get UC and HB at the same time.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.0
