ccb is a sliding scale based on your income estimate - so for 55k, you'll get more ccb than someone on 60k - exactly the same as FTBA. the only thing that varies is whether you work or not - if both you and your partner work study or train for at least 15 hours per week, you get up to 50hours of ccb each week, if one of you doesn't, it's a maximum of 24 hours


the 30%/50% thing is for when both parents meet the work study training test. up until the end of the 07/08 financial year, you got 30% of your out of pocket costs rebated if you both met it (so th amount you pay on top of ccb), it's now gone up to 50%
