do postgraduate teacher training in England that leads to qualified teacher status (QTS), you may be eligible for a bursary?

No. The Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management Online (RQF, 120 Credits) is not a teacher training programme and does not lead to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Consequently, it is not eligible for the Department for Education’s teacher training bursaries or scholarships. Those financial supports are strictly reserved for students enrolled in accredited Initial Teacher Training (ITT) courses, such as Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) or School Direct routes, which prepare candidates to teach in schools. This OTHM qualification focuses exclusively on health and social care leadership, management principles, and regulatory compliance. While it supports progression to Level 6 degrees or senior care management roles, it holds no standing within the education sector’s funding framework for teacher induction.
