PGCE Funding

I'm awful at navigating this site so apologies if there is already a thread for this.

I'm having difficulty understanding what loans and grants and tuition payments are available for PGCE students? Can anyone explain it for me please? As well are you entitled more or less than what you got in your third year of undergrad?

Thanks!

You can get another student loan for your course fees and you can get a maintenance loan from them. (You can't get grants anymore from student finance) Depending on what you get for your degree and what your PGCE is going to be in, you might be entitled to a bursary as well: https://getintoteaching.education.gov.uk/bursaries-and-funding :smile:

Roughly how much is the maintenance grant?

There's a calculator on this site for you to figure it out https://www.gov.uk/student-finance/new-fulltime-students

And it's no longer a grant - it's a loan now.
