[serious] I'm in the UK (England) and about to be made unemployed due to Covid. I was looking in to full time/part time education, am I entitled to any help or benefits?

Adding a comment to give a little more information on my current situation:

Like the title said, I'm curious if I'm entitled to any benefits at all in regards to education I'm I'm unemployed and if anyone was or has been in a similar situation with any useful information you might have would be great.

I'm 25, I live with my partner who is a full time teacher, I need at least £500 a month to pay for my half of the bills and rent, im looking at going to college to learn a trade but some of the courses are full time and quite expensive and without an income any savings I have would be drained.

The courses start at the end of this month, I'm currently job Searching but Is there any government help I could be entitled to either to help pay for the courses or help with my half of the rent if I'm unemployed?

Or in order to go into full time education, or would I need to just work part time nights and weekends with zero government aid?

I'm not trying to get hand outs of freebies I'm just trying to look at all the options before I commit to anything, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
