Can I study while on sick benefits?

Home More advice Education & School

I have been on income support for almost 15 mths due to deepression and an eating disorder and I don't think I will not be coming off it anytime soon. I'm obviously unfit for work or studying at a public place such as college. but I was wondering if I could do some kind of course at home/on the net at home. would I be able to without it affecting my benefit? can you recomend any companies that offer this? preferrably free courses.
