Funding & Bursaries

Funding and fees will look different depending on whether you are applying for a salaried route or a fee-paying (bursary) route. More information about these different routes can be found at GetintoTeaching.

From the start of the 2025/26 academic year tuition fees for teacher training programmes will be £9,535 for full time teacher training courses and £7,145 for part-time teacher training courses. If you need help covering the tuition fee or require a maintenance loan please visit www.gov.uk/student-finance for further information. 

You could also qualify for a scholarship or tax-free bursary depending on your degree subject and qualification, please see the 2025/6 figures here. Bursaries and scholarships are available to trainees on a fee-based teacher training course in England that leads to the award of QTS. Additional financial support is also available if you're a parent, have an adult dependent or have a disability.

When to apply for finance

We would strongly recommend that you apply for student finance at an early stage to ensure funding; once you've accepted your place, you can apply for a Tuition Fee Loan and a Maintenance Loan.
