And are not discrimated.
These are life skills courses not advanced education

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about access to Universal Credit for certain students, but eligibility to Universal Credit is not linked to whether a person has an Education and Health Care Plan, so we're not sure exactly what changes you want the Government to make, or not make, to rules regarding eligibility for Universal Credit.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
