These Regulations amend the Education (Student Support) Regulations 2007, which provide for financial support for students taking designated higher education courses in respect of an academic year beginning on or after 1st September 2007.
These Regulations provide that a student who is a prisoner during any part of the academic year is not eligible for any part of the full-time student support package, with the exception of tuition fee support and disabled students' allowance. No further payments of maintenance grants or loans are due to a student who had previously been eligible for such support before the coming into force of these Regulations.
