If a candidate does not submit by their deadline
They need to ‘carry over’ their application to continue working on it
An interstitial page is shown on sign in (from 6pm on 7 September 2021 for candidates applying for the first time and 6pm on 21 September 2021 for candidates applying again). Clicking continue carries over their application to the next available cycle:
If they carry over before Apply reopens, they cannot submit
A banner lets candidates know that applications are not open at the moment but that they can apply from 9am on 12 October 2021:
The submit button is disabled and candidates are informed that they can apply from 9am on 12 October 2021:
If they carry over before Find reopens, they cannot find courses
Candidates cannot find courses if they carry over before Find has reopened:
The courses closed message shows on the review page too:
Candidates currently do not receive an email on their deadline to let them know that it’s no longer possible to apply for courses starting in the 2021 to 2022 academic year but that they can continue applying. We should review this, as candidates can work on their application even if applications are not open.
However, candidates get an email letting them know that courses are open.
Candidates who applied in time but did not get a place
If there’s still time to apply in the same recruitment cycle
Candidates get the usual ‘apply again’ email inviting them to apply again in the same recruitment cycle:
- Subject

If they log in before the deadline to apply again, they’ll see the usual ‘apply again’ message but with the addition of a deadline banner. They can apply again in the normal way, up until the deadline to apply again.
If it’s too late to apply in the same recruitment cycle, they need to ‘carry over’ their application
As soon as the deadline to apply again has passed, the message in the ‘apply again’ inset text changes – letting the candidate know they can apply for the next cycle. Clicking ‘apply again’ carries over their application.
If the application does not lead to a place when the deadline to apply again has already passed, the usual ‘apply again’ email changes to reflect this:

Timeframe to carry over an application
We have not set an end point for carrying over an application, but we’re assessing whether we should.
As it stands, the carry over message when a candidate’s application does not lead to a place and the unsubmitted carry over message continue to show indefinitely until the candidate actions it.
Wherever we refer to applying for courses starting in a particular year, such as in carry over messages or banners, it should always reflect the year the candidate is eligible to start a course in.
Letting candidates know that courses are open
Anyone who started or submitted an application for courses starting in the 2021 to 2022 academic year without securing a place gets an email letting them know when courses are open.
If a candidate started their application in the previous cycle but did not submit by their deadline:
- Subject
- Applications are open – apply for teacher training again
((first_name_provided??Dear ((first_name)),))
Applications are open – submit your teacher training application
Complete your application to get on a course starting in the ((year_range)) academic year:
