Funding your
teacher training
Tuition Fees
Trainees have to pay tuition fees to cover the cost of the course. Home and EU trainees will be eligible for a tuition fee loan from Student Finance England to cover the cost of these fees.
Bursaries and Scholarships
Many trainees are also eligible for bursaries or scholarships, depending on the subject you wish to teach. These change every year so please click below to view the most up to date information.
Salaried teacher training positions
Sometimes trainees can be employed directly by a school as an unqualified teacher and train at the same time. This route would be most suited to people who have prior experience working in schools or significant relevant work experience.
These positions do not arise frequently and so we would always recommend planning to self fund the training.
Any salaried training positions will be opened on DfE Apply.
