Full time students are not entitled to Jobseeker's Allowance (because they're not available for work), nor are they entitled to Supplementary Welfare Allowance (full-time students are excluded).
There are back to education schemes available, but I'm not sure that a Repeat Leaving Cert Student would qualify for same - no harm asking, I suppose!
