Your statement of affairs will obviously be different when you return to studying, but here is some initial feedback on your budget, based on my own experiences with budget a debt management plan and DRO application:
clothing: £100 per month is high; I was allowed £20, although a higher amount may be acceptable if for example you need special clothes/uniform for work.Holiday: you may be allowed a very small budget for a holiday, but again we’re talking more like £20 per month - £100 per month is too high.
medical/dental etc: £100 is quite high, although it may be accepted if there are good reasons - for example you have to have special contact lenses or dental treatments (not cosmetic treatments like whitening), and/or if you have to pay for medical items that you couldn’t get on prescription. On the subject of prescriptions, if there are things you need regularly you can get a per-payment certificate that covers everything for about £11 a month.0 -
You have no transport costs - at all?1
