Its not a decent wage it you're trying to raise a family
Five years ago there was absolutely no way a full-on course could be done without significant financial help from parents, there weren't enough hours in the day to work 20 hours of lectures plus the prescribed '20 hours' work and keep a job. Not sure what the old grant conditions were but now students from families financially below median income get 3.4k/yr grant, I seem to remember my system involved jumping through firey hoops only to be told to bugger off.
feel myself coming over all like that minty python sketch
