Claiming Benifits While Training?

Hey Folks,

I'm hoping to start an integrated course at Cabair next year and would be intending on moving into rented property in Bedford along with my wife and child.

Can I assume that we would both be able to claim all the usual unemployment benefits from the government? Can I further assume that because we would both be unemployed that we would be able to claim for housing benefit to pay for our rent?

I guess what I really want to know is if anybody else has been in this situation and can shed some light on what exactly we would be able to claim from the government with regards to unemployment/housing/child benefits?

Thanks in advance

Chris
