Recipients will begin their studies in Semester/Trimester 2 2024.
Teachers and regional workforces are encouraged to apply for a scholarship to gain expertise in inclusive and specialist education or learning difficulties. Discuss with your principal or manager how postgraduate study could align with your school or regional strategic goals for inclusion.
