We are offering scholarships of:

Scholarships are usually available to applicants with a 1st, 2:1, master’s or PhD, though in exceptional circumstances they may be awarded to a graduate with a 2:2 and significant relevant experience.
Scholarships also come with a package of additional benefits from the relevant scholarship body:
• tax free scholarship
• membership to the professional body
• subject specialist events and webinars held by professional bodies
• online and face-to-face workshops across the country
• subject specialist mentors and coaching
• community of scholars (ex-scholars, teachers, subject leaders)

Scholarships are applied for separately to ITT and only awarded to high calibre students who pass a robust application and interview process in one of the specialist subject areas. Scholarships are awarded instead of a bursary.
Scholarship applicants should apply to the relevant scholarship body.
