Attention alumni who are qualified and registered teachers!

The Ministry of Education has announced that applications for TESSOL scholarships to study in 2025 are now open for a very short time. Round 1 closes on 18 December, and round 2 on 23 January if funding allows.

The TESSOL scholarship is for registered teachers with a current practising certificate who are employed at state schools or kura and early learning services and, as part of this role, are supporting English language learners. The scholarship covers fees for Massey’s Grad Cert TEAL, which is taken by teachers part-time over two years.
