It is usual to apply directly to the institution or department offering the course or research opportunity as there is no centralised application system for postgraduate study in the UK. There are some exceptions, mainly for vocational subjects such as teaching, social work and law, for which there are clearing houses.
As well as the application form, which is increasingly available from the website of individual institutions, you will be asked to approach referees. And, if you are applying for a research degree, provide a research proposal.
