DID YOU ALSO KNOW THAT.....THE HORTICULTURAL / GARDENING COURSES WILL WAIVE COURSE FEES IF A STUDENT IS ON ANY INCOME BASED BENEFIT (LIKE JSA ETC) OR RECEIVING COUNCIL TAX BENEFIT. IF SOMEONE IS NOT ON ANY OF THESE, BUT IS ON A LOW INCOME, THEN THE COLLEGE CAN OFFER SOME FINANCIAL HELP USING THEIR OWN POT OF FUNDS. A FULL TIME COURSE IS ONLY 3 DAYS A WEEK. WE (HOPEFULLY, IF ENOUGH PEOPLE SIGN UP) WILL BE DOING 1 DAY A WEEK FOR 1 YEAR. WHILE WE WERE THERE....THERE WAS A MAN IN HIS FORTIES, WHO GOT FED UP WITH HIS JOB A FULL TIME VEHICLE PANEL SPRAYER. HE SAID HE NEEDED A COMPLETE CHANGE AND SAID HE FELT LIKE HE WAS STUCK IN A RUT. WELL, GOOD FOR HIM, HE HAD LEFT HIS JOB, AND SIGNED UP FOR A 3 YEAR FULL TIME COURSE DOING A DIPLOMA IN HORTICULTURE. THE WHOLE 3 YEARS WILL COST HIM.....WAIT FOR IT.....AROUND £11,000. YES, YOU CAN GET UP NOW.....PHEW! FORTUNATELY, THE COLLEGE ARE ABLE TO OFFER A LOAN, THAT HE CAN PAY BACK ONCE HE EARNS MORE THAN £21,000 PER ANNUM. IF I WERE HIM....I WOULD BE OVER THE MOON TO EARN UPTO £400 PER WEEK AND NOT WORRY ABOUT REPAYING THE LOAN. ITS A WIN, WIN, SITUATION. SO IF HE CAN MAKE THE LEAP.....SO CAN YOU!
