Bursaries
If you are studying on a teaching or health and social work programme, you may be eligible for a bursary. Bursary awards and criteria can change each academic year and are subject to availability as confirmed by DfE and DHSC.
Teaching bursaries
Qualifying for a teaching bursary from the Department for Education (DfE) is straightforward. There is no formal application, the University will award the bursary if you meet the criteria.
DfE bursaries are paid in addition to any Student Finance maintenance loan awarded. Funding amounts for subject areas can be found here.
During enrolment, notification will be issued to students university email accounts, to confirm bursary entitlement and scheduled payment dates. Qualifying students will be asked to provide nominated bank account details and their National Insurance number and agree to Terms and Conditions defined by the DfE and the University.
Payment will only be made once you have met all of the conditions of entry and are fully registered on programme.
Students may only receive one initial teacher training bursary within the academic year. Should you meet the eligibility criteria for more than one bursary, Department for Education guidelines state that only the higher award may be received.
2023/2024 trainees
For academic year 2023/2024 trainees are only eligible for a bursary or scholarship if they’re entitled to support under the student finance criteria. If trainees do not wish to take out a tuition fee and/or maintenance loan, they are still required to evidence their eligibility. Trainees can do this by applying for a £0 tuition fee loan and £0 maintenance loan. If applicable, Student Finance will confirm trainees’ eligibility to the University once they have assessed the application. Applicants may be eligible for a PGCE bursary if they hold a PhD, Master’s, first, 2:1 or 2:2 degree qualification, and have ‘home’ residency status and do not already hold QTS status.

Students who are not nominated (or who wouldn’t qualify) for a Social Work Bursary, may make an application to Student Finance for a postgraduate Masters loan.
