+<li>this will give you time to plan how you <a href="https://getintoteaching.education.gov.uk/funding-and-support ">fund your training</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+“Applying late was stressful. I was limited in my choice of teacher training course provider, and I'd lost my GCSE certificates. I had to go back to my school and get new copies so I could confirm my place on the course and my student finance.”
