If you used Clearing in 2024, how did you find it?

New PGCE bursary amount after intermission?

Is it possible to receive the new, higher, PGCE bursary amount (for the 2024/25 year) after returning from medical intermission in January 2025? The old amount I started on in 2022/2023 was not enough to make ends meet, and with medical needs it's impossible to live on that amount. The university said it's not possible and that you stay on your original bursary amount.

Hi there,

I believe we've already replied to you on a previous thread, but just to confirm: we at Student Finance England don't have any say regarding bursaries, so you should speak to your bursary provider directly.

Thanks, Graeme
