PGCE bursaries

Additional Information

The new government has proposed financial incentives for potential teachers based on degree classification and subject specialism.

This means that trainee teacher will receive up to £20,000 if they have a First class degree and choose the 'right' subject to specialise in.

This is a form of inequality and indirect discrimination. Potentially outstanding teachers may be reluctant to join the profession due to lack of financial support. Teaching is profession that requires passion and skill - something that is not guaranteed from obtaining a First class degree.

We want equal bursaries for all PGCE students.
