It occured to me whilst filing in university funding forms whether training pilots would ever be able to extact some cash from their LEA?

I know it sounds a bit of a long shot but maybe worth investigating. Even if they won't help in the slightest with the actual training costs whether it be an integrated or modular course what about living costs? The loans from the studentloancompany are at a very low interest rate, i think its something like 2%.

Anybody tried asking their LEA before?

The only way you're plan will work is to apply to Leeds for the BSc(Hons) in Aviation Management with Pilot studies. Part of that degree is to get your PPL so technically you could apply for a student loan to cover that part of your training.

Nice try though, shows lateral thinking.
