Can only answer for England, but I'm not aware it's any different North of the border.
Client couldn't claim Incap in Youth if she is in full time education, defined as over 21 hours/week excluding any hours which are specifically tailored for people with a disability. If not in full time education, she could claim Incap in Youth if she had been incapable of work for 196 days etc.
She could get IS as a disabled student as she is entitled to the disability premium through her DLA.
Sorry I haven't got time to rummage for the reg refs at the moment, but post another query if you still need them.
