Grants and funding routes for antenatal teacher training diplomas

Discovering if there is financial support for your Antenatal Training Diploma journey can help to accelerate the achievement of your goals. There are a number of grants and funding opportunities available, but they can vary based on your location and individual circumstances. Through our mentoring service, our team can guide you through the various pathways to funding, helping you explore options tailored to your needs.

We work directly with a few grants agencies who can help you access government grants to support you with paying for you antenatal training diploma costs, to marketing, set up fees even a wage to pay yourself for the first year whilst you get established!

Grants range from £1000 to £25,000, with 97% of applications securing their desired funding!

We’re committed to assisting you in finding the financial resources to make your Antenatal Training Diploma dreams a reality – and that means helping you create a successful career and not just delivering a course!

Financial hardship is something we don’t believe should be something that prevents you helping us to change the narrative when it comes to antenatal education.

Access to Work

This is a grant suitable for anyone who identifies with having any form of physical, mental health or learning difference, such as ADHD. You do not need to have a formal diagnosis, but your condition must impact your life in some way. 

It takes around 8 months to apply for and the process can be difficult. We do offer free support with the application process to help you maximise your chances of an award. However we can only offer this support to students intending on enrolling, or already enrolled onto the Advanced Diploma. This is due to the support that is built into the diploma and because we can tailor the support inline with your award and eligibility. 

Typical awards range from £10,000 – £20,000. All students may access the service and apply independently.

If you are registered unemployed and receive benefits you may be able to get funding through the Department of Work and Pensions. 

 
You will need to request an interview your work coach and request they apply for funding and put in a “Request for Quote”  through “Low Value Provision Training”. If they are unaware of this route please ask them to speak to a with a Job Centre Supervisor or another colleague.  They need to satisfied that you will gain work following the course, and that it can be completed quickly. Because of this we  we recommend that you apply for the Accelerator  Advanced Diploma. You can tell them this will lead to a teaching contract with BirthWorld CIC as well as the ability to apply for jobs within the NHS.  You will need to tell them the company is registered under BirthWorld CIC and our D-U-N-S® Number is 228128127.
