I have no qualifications. Also I have 2 children, my partner works and I stay home with them.
How could I get a degree? I haven't decided what I want to do yet, what I do know is I don't want to end up working in Tescos when my kids are older.

We are not well off.

Look at the Open University website. You don't need to have A levels or anything to study with them. There are lots of subjects to choose from and 'taster' courses to ease you back into studying. If you are on benefits then you can apply for help from the OU with the fees.
I started my OU degree aged 36 and have only 1 more year to do for my degree.
Good luck with whatever you decide.

You can do an access course at your local further education college or you can do an HNC then HND then progress to (usually) 3rd year of a degree course.
Your best bet would be to go along to your local college open day and ask around.

If you have a local community college they may be able to help.
i am lucky where I live we have a college where you can master in arts at any age and there is a creche for the children.
If that is a no go there is always the open university

Contact your local university and see what they have to offer. Most are very keen to accomodate mature students.
