Trainee teacher grants
09 March 2010
Hockerill Educational Foundation grants for students in need 2010-11.
The Hockerill Educational Foundation are inviting applications for grants (usually £500 - £1000 pa) to teachers in training who have particular financial difficulties, for example:
- Those who have additional family or other costs and responsibilities
- Those who have no family support to fall back on
- Mature students for whom teaching is a career change
- Those not eligible for the normal statutory loan/grant support
Students training to teach Religious Education are the Foundation's highest priority, but they can also help students in other areas, particularly primary education students. If you think you may be eligible, you should apply now for grants for the next academic year 2010-11.
Applications received by 31 March have priority, but applications received during April/May are considered if funds are available. The final deadline is 31 May.
