Petition Increase the bursary for training English teachers 2016-17

The government are increasing the bursary for training English teachers from a minimum of £4,000 to £9,000 for all.
Many who are training to teach English this year will only receive £4,000 to cover living expenses. If they had applied this year they would receive over double the amount.
