Student visas are normally granted for an initial period of 1 year, usually determined by the length of the course to be studied. Student visa UK allow you to work for 20 hours per week during term time, but does not allow you to work for more than 20 hours unless your placement is part of your studies, has the agreement of your education institution and leads to a degree or qualification awarded by a nationally recognized examining body and also not to do business, be self-employed or provide services as a professional sportsperson or entertainer and work full-time in a permanent job.

Your spouse and any dependant children under the age of 18 years can accompany you to the UK during your studies as long as you can support them and live without needing help from public funds. You must prove that you intend to leave UK at the end of the course and that you have the required requirements to take the course.
