Paragraph 5
A person is to be regarded as undertaking a qualifying course of education on a particular day only if on that day—
he is under the age of 20,
he is not undertaking a course of full time education within the meaning of paragraphs 3 and 4 above; and
the relevant number of hours per week for that course, or where he is undertaking 2 or more qualifying courses with the same establishment, the aggregate of the relevant number of hours per week, exceeds 12.
A person is undertaking a course on a day for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) if—
the day falls in the relevant period for that course, and
he is not an apprentice or a youth training trainee.
In relation to a qualifying course of education “the relevant number of hours per week” means the average number of hours per week a person undertaking it would normally require to spend, in the period during which the course subsists, on relevant activities within the meaning of paragraph 6 below, (excluding for the purpose of calculating that average any period of vacation).
