Hi,
me and my partner have separated, we will no longer be living together. He earns over the threshold for funding, i earn £30k a year. The kids will live with me, will i be entitled to 30hrs funding with the separation? Tia

If you work over 16 hours (at min wage) as a single parent you will be able to claim 30 hours.

Best start in life website is the best place to check your circumstances. If you already get funding you should be able to get it until your grace period ends in any case.
