We're delighted to let you know that the DfE have announced that NPQ qualifications will now be fully funded by government scholarships for teachers in state funded schools in England.
That means they will fully cover all course fees*, with schools now having to focus only on providing the right support and time for colleagues to engage in study.
This is a major new piece of support from the government and gives schools a significant new source of funding for high quality training.
Learn-AT Professional are proud to be delivering the new suite of National Professional Qualifications to schools, leaders and teachers in our region on behalf of the Teacher Development Trust. The courses available are:
- NPQ for Leading Behaviour & Culture: Lead the improvement of pupil wellbeing, create calm classrooms, great pupil behaviour and a warm whole-school culture through the NPQLBC.
- NPQ for Leading Teacher Development: Lead the development of other staff in your schools – especially those in initial training or in their early careers – through coaching, mentoring and designing the highest quality CPD programmes through the NPQLTD.
- NPQ for Leading Teaching (& Curriculum): Lead great quality teaching and curriculum, whether in a subject, year group, key stage or phase through the NPQLT.
The application deadline has now been extended to 18th October for a November start date, and we're also taking applications for a January start.
