TAS Grant for prospective teachers
Prospective teachers living in Scotland can apply to TAS at any time for a teacher training related grant (eg help with the fee for Summer School or travelling expenses for a course elsewhere).
TAS funds will be reviewed each year and a maximum set per year for the amount available to be spent.
Summer School 2013 – Unit 5: An application was made for a grant towards attendance at Summer School to attend the Unit 5 Teaching Certificate Course. The TAS committee was in agreement that the grant should be awarded and delighted to find out that the applicant passed.
Applications for funding should be made to the Treasurer. Email: tas.treasurer@mail.com.
Use of TAS Excess Funds
Spring Fling 2018: As agreed at the AGM in August 2017, TAS offered ten grants of £50 each to Scottish youngsters aged 16 –25 years old as a subsidy towards their fee to attend the event in Glasgow. Unfortunately, there was poor uptake with only six applied for.
Summer School 2018 - Units 2 and 3: An application was made for a Scholarship towards attendance at Summer School to attend the Unit 2 & 3 Teaching Certificate Course. The TAS committee were in agreement and granted the scholarship.
