Following the close of Apply 1 on Monday, we’re fast approaching the end of the 2020 cycle and start of the 2021 cycle. Below are the key dates you need to know, and details of how to take part in our next regional forums.
2020 Cycle key dates

The 2021 cycle is the beginning of the DfE’s Apply for Teacher Training university pilot, which will see both UCAS and the DfE offer application services.
In advance of the opening of the cycle UCAS and the DfE are hosting a joint webinar to give providers an overview of how dual running will work, in addition to a demonstration of the DfE’s new service.
6 October: Students can start their search for 2021 courses
The DfE Find Postgraduate Teacher Training launches with 2021 courses – make sure your programmes are set up ahead of this date.

UCAS Teacher Training ‘Apply’ and DfE ‘Apply for Teacher Training’ systems both open for 2021 applications.
Don’t miss October’s regional forums
To give you an opportunity to engage with us and each other, we’re running two UCAS Teacher Training regional forums in October. You’ll be able to:
- talk through the opening of the cycle and how you feel it’s gone
- share best practice
- feedback and ask questions following the UCAS/DfE Dual running workshop
We’re holding two sessions to make sure you can engage with us, but you only need to attend one session. Click on the below links to register your place:
Kind regards
