There are NO discounts on the iPhone 6 currently.
When it does apply it is 30% off the airtime portion of the contracts pre VAT cost.

Hi

Yes a student discount is available.

You'll need to go into store to see what's available for that discount

Only if you take a sim only deal and buy the phone elsewhere.

thanks but i thought you get a student discount on a contract not a sim only plan

[MI5]

Sim only monthly's ie simplicity tariffs are classed as contracts.

o so can't get it on my contract when I Upgrade??

Not if you upgrade to an iPhone 6, no.
Your options are to wait until they allow discount on the ip6 (you can drop to a simo meanwhile to save money) or upgrade to a different phone.
