Funding opportunities for primary project abroad

The British Council has released a new 5th November funding deadline for CILT’s Primary Teachers’ Project, which gives teachers the chance to spend two weeks abroad improving their language skills and picking up new teaching ideas to take back to the primary classroom.

The projects will take place in Germany, France and Spain in the 2011 spring term and Easter break. Teachers spend one week receiving intensive language and methodology training and one week on a work shadowing placement in a primary school.

Teachers can apply for EU Comenius funding of up to 2,500 euros for travel and subsistence. A contribution of £525 towards supply cover is also available.

The deadline for funding is Friday 5 November. To find out more, visit our Primary Teachers’ Project webpage.
