I am planning to go back soon to study social work and was wondering how this would effect my esa? I am in the old style esa in the support group. Will it also effect my housing benefit. 
Any advice would be helpful thanks

    Which ESA are you claiming, Income Related or contributions based? If Income Related is it a full time course you'll be doing? and do you claim a disability benefit such as either PIP/DLA or ADP?

    @n31 Going back to study social work sounds exciting! :) What about social work makes you want to study it?
