Bursaries 2024/2025

The government awards tax-free bursaries and scholarships to train to teach in a range of subjects. Full information can be found on the Get into Teaching website, Bursaries and Scholarships page.

Applicants may be eligible for a bursary if they have a 1st, 2.1 or 2.2, or if they hold Master’s or PhD. You do not need to apply for a bursary. If you are offered a place on a PGCE programme, are eligible for a bursary and meet the conditions of your offer to enrol on the course as a student at the University of York, your entitlement to a bursary will be calculated based on your subject area and highest qualification on entry. 

Scholarships also come with a package of additional benefits from the appropriate professional body. Each of the professional bodies that offer scholarships sets the award criteria. Scholarship applicants should apply to the relevant professional body. For details, go to our Scholarships webpage.
