Hi there, I am currently in full time employment but my contract finishes in December. I am hoping to go back to full time education in February, I wouldn't be a mature student though I would be doing a postgraduate degree. Does anyone know am I entitled to any benefits. I'm 26. Thanks

No. You wouldn't qualify for BTEA, and you cannot claim Jobseeker's as you will be a student.
