Thanks Steve, the Help desk also just confirmed. Good news for my apprentice!
If the learner completed an apprenticeship at the university and they previously claimed a bursary then they would not be able to claim this again.
However, if they did not complete an apprenticeship and this is their first apprenticeship then they will be eligible to claim the care leaver bursary as long as they fit the other eligibility criteria

Care Leaver Bursary - can you claim twice?
Edited
Hi all,
I have an apprentice that is potentially eligible for the care leaver bursary, they meet the former relevant child criteria however they did claim some bursaries whilst at University.
I'm aware of the funding rule around only claiming the care leaver bursary once but does anyone know if this covers both Apprenticeships and University bursaries or if they are separate?
Many thanks
