CE scheme and one parent family

    There's a CE placement locally that I'd like to apply for . I am on one parent family payment and have 2 children - one at school until 3pm and the other in ECCE until 12.25pm daily. To take up the place I'd need some extra childcare for the younger child.
    I currently get full payment one parent family - my maintenance is offset to my rent & I do not get rent allowance.
    From what I can see I'd get €208 for CE scheme plus €20. Is this correct? As it's less than I currently receive & I'm struggling as it is. I'd love to get back into anything but couldn't take the hit of reduced weekly income and extra childcare costs. (Would I be better looking for any private part time work and keeping my one parent family - from what I can make of it, I can earn €110 without affecting my current payment - but I could have read it wrong.)
