No, Dependant must leave and apply for T4 on his/her own capacity from his/her country. unless the main applicant got ILR

1. U initial post was that " Hi can any body tell me plz if a dependent can switch to student or not" so in this case the answer is wat i already said.

2. Now u r saying that " That a dependent have to go to his/her home country to switch to student visa from psw" Now u saying that from PSW to student so its a bit confusing as dependent can not be on PSW visa in the first palce.

1. In that case, she needs to leave the UK and apply for EC (Entry Clearance) from your home country as she can not apply from within UK.
2. She will also need to meet the full criteria for the type of work permit she wants to apply for.
