PGCE bursary during intermission from studies

Hi,
I'm about to intermit from PGCE, mainly due to health, but also finances are a factor. Where online is there information that PGCE bursaries can continue during intermission? I saw it, but now I can't find it - and I need to show my university.

I only need one or two months of bursary pay during intermission to make ends meet whilst I recover my health enough to resume work. (I'm a mature student, so going to mum and dad for help isn't an option). My university is reluctantly open to supporting this if I can show that it is possible to receive PGCE bursary payments during medical intermission. I saw this info somewhere on an official website but cannot find it now. Does anyone have any links or information that I can show my university please? Thank you.

Hi there,

We don't have any say when it comes to bursaries, unfortunately.

We'd recommend speaking to whichever body is proving this bursary: they'll be able to confirm this.

Thanks, Graeme
