Research Grants for Teachers

The Queensland College of Teachers (QCT) has annually awarded a small number of grants to practising Queensland teachers to assist them to present their research at key Australian education conferences such as those of ATEA, ACSA and AARE. This initiative is part of the QCT’s program of activities to promote teaching as a profession.

Queensland-registered teachers who have undertaken research on teaching are invited to apply for a grant to enable them to present their findings in a suitable national or state forum. The receipt of the grant is contingent upon the acceptance of their proposed paper presentation by the conference organisers. The grant provides financial assistance to cover conference registration fees and travel and accommodation associated with conference attendance.

Applications normally open on 1 January each year and close on 30 April of the relevant year and must be on the form provided by the QCT. Please see the QCT Teacher Research Grants Guidelines and Application Form (PDF, 77KB).
