Hi all want to share some information that might help people. This relates to DWP status.
Did you know that if you have a limited capacity for work and one PIP element you can go to university. You are allowed under the retraining for work package. You can go on a part time masters, not sure about a full-time degree. You can apply for a student loan and the grant. Now this bit I'm not absolutely sure about, it may be decided at a local level (my 'work coach's' sister has got a brain injury)- the grant is not deducted, I repeat your grant is not deducted from your DWP payments. I was expecting the grant to be deducted but it is not.
So if you are on the mend (finally) and don't know what to do with yourself or want a new opportunity in life now is your chance. The next 3 to 5 years is going to be grim anyway with covid and brexit adjustments so go for it.
