I can't find anything on the HMRC website about whether I can have training as an allowable expense or not. If so, which box does it go in?
Yes you can definitely claim training (if it is business related) but not sure where it goes.

Your not aloud to claime training to develope additional skills and to add extra services that you offer! Its so stupid! But you.can claim 40p a mile for riding a Bike!! I suggest contact your local tax office and go on some courses to find out exactly what your aloud to claime.. Its a free course!
It's actually 20p a mile for riding a bike and this would cover ware and tear http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/rates/travel.htm
You can't claim for your initial training to set up your business but if you are self employed you can for courses specifically related directly and used only in the sector you work in as long as the training is ‘wholly and exclusively" for the trade in which you work.
I quote from the H M Revenue and customs website "to be allowable expenditure, it must be 'wholly and exclusively' for carrying on and earning the profits of your business. This means that your sole purpose for the expenditure must be a business purpose." that is you couldn't claim for a PTTLLS teaching course, or a business management course but you could for a course for an additional service.
Who told you this?! The tax office direct wouldn't
