Yup.
I have been having an argument with my ex about this. He wants to stop it at 17, even though my daughter is in college until she is 18+
A full time course is considered to be 24 hours per week or more, and the level of education should be GCSE, A level or equivalent.
He insists he won't be putting her through Uni, the git.

my court order was until my son finished full time education but then the csa poked their nose in as i had to go on income support for a while.they upped the payments but told my ex he could stop the payments when my son was 18 although he was still at college so thats what he did.i think the rules are different if its a normal court order but cab should be able to tell you whats what.
I think the CSA stop payments at the age of 19 (unless there are arrears, then they continue until they are paid off)
If your child goes on to uni they can apply through the courts themselves for maintenance. If a court order is in place it can be ammended.
That is what my daughter intends to do if she decides to go to uni.

Not sure if the rules have changed but when I was divorced (a long time ago!) is was 'while in full time education up to the age of 23 unless the court decides otherwise'. If yours says, 16, 18 or whatever, it can be changed by the courts. This assumes the maintainer is still working and earrning. Check with the CAB, they know everything there is to know about this.
