Bursaries
There are three types of funding available for teacher training - your eligibility for funding will depend on your individual circumstances.
1. Tax-free bursary or scholarship*
2. Tuition Fee Loan and Maintenance Loan
3. Additional financial support if you’re a parent or have a disability
Postgraduate bursaries are tax-free payments you'll receive if you're training to teach certain subjects. You do not need to apply for a bursary, you'll automatically be awarded one if you are eligible. The bursary will be paid to you in monthly instalments during your time on the course.
*Please note that applicants may be eligible for a bursary if they have a 1st, 2:1, 2:2, PhD or Master's.
