Salary sacrifice car and open university PT fee grant.

Hi,
I work on a 30 hour contract and my base salary is £24,211 but as I do have to cover some weekends this takes me over the £25000 threshold for eligibility for the part time fee grant. My question is I have a car through my employers salary sacrifice scheme which obviously comes off my salary before the normal deductions. This would bring my salary down to £20k.

Can anyone advise If they have any experiences of this and if the grant criteria would take this I to account or would it be The contract salary? I can’t work it out online and responses from OU are understandably delayed.
Thanks
