How to apply - and how to get ready

Applications are now closed - but you can still get prepared for when they reopen for the autumn intake.

When the application window opens, you’ll be asked to complete four simple steps to set up your account. It only takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

Here’s what you’ll need to provide:

  • Basic questions to check if you’re eligible
  • Information about data protection and how we’ll use your data
  • Your contact details
  • Your qualifications and education history

Once submitted, we’ll open your account and email you with next steps.

When you apply, you’ll also be assigned a dedicated programme talent officer, who will support you throughout the process - from your first questions to your first day in the classroom.
