National Professional Practice Study Awards: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Teachers can apply for funding to support postgraduate study and professional development through these national awards.
This scheme provides financial support for teachers who want to further their education through postgraduate study to improve their professional practice.
Who it's for
This is designed for teachers who are looking to enhance their professional skills and knowledge by enrolling in postgraduate courses.
What you get
You may receive funding to help cover the costs of your tuition. The award can provide either full or partial financial support and may include provisions for study leave, which is time taken away from your regular teaching duties to focus on your studies.
What it costs you
While there is no direct fee mentioned to apply, the process is competitive. To be considered, you will need to secure formal support from your school principal.
The catch to know
These awards are not guaranteed. Because there is a limited number of awards available each year, the selection process is highly competitive.
How to apply
- Research postgraduate programs that align with your professional goals.
- Discuss your study plans with your school principal to secure their support.
- Prepare your application according to the current requirements.
- Submit your application through the official channels provided by the Ministry of Education.
