    Education for 16-18 year olds is funded by the government - After that the government no longer provides any funidng hence why people usually have to pay
    16-19 year olds

    Uni is counted as full time if it's above 16 hours a week and you can get student finance support.

    I thought it was 16-18 year olds and 19 year olds, but only if they were in education since they were 18. E.g. starting A Levels at the age of 18 and finishing at the age of 19. But if you start at the age of 19 then you have to pay.
    Anyway I get what you both mean.

    I was under the impression you could start a new course at 19 and it would still be free, but I can't say I'm sure, so you may be right

    At the college I attended, if you started a new course at the age of 19 you had to pay for that course. I was under the impression that this was the same elsewhere.

    I went to a sixth form, so I can't say I knew anyone that started a new course at 19, so you probably are right
