The amount of any part of a student's own income taken into
account when assessing entitlement to a student's loan or grant is
disregarded. The disregard applies to the income taken into account
when the grant is assessed and not to any contribution included in
grant income for WFTC/DPTC purposes.
The disregard should be apportioned equally over the period
the contribution is taken into account as grant income. If the
contribution is taken into account over more than one period, the
disregard should be divided pro-rata between the various
periods.
