Paying back student loan

Hi,
I am currently applying to do a PGCE course and I would get a £9,000 bursary. How beneficial would it be to spend that money paying back some of my student loan or would it not be beneficial at all?

Depends on the size of your student loan and your likely earnings over the next 30 years.
I would wait until you are a couple of years into your teaching career before deciding; unless your student loan is small.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.
