About the scholarship

They provide financial assistance so the loss of income you experience while studying is not a barrier to obtaining a teaching qualification.

These scholarships are also available for people who are not qualified teachers but are currently working in a school either teaching te reo Maori; as a specialist Maori language teacher such as a kaiarahi reo teacher; or who have Limited Authority to Teach in a Maori-medium school.

These scholarships are for people enrolling into their first year of an approved Maori-medium teacher education qualification commencing at the start of the 2019 academic year.
