Grant Description
The Commonwealth Teaching Scholarships Program – Round 3 provides scholarships of up to $40,000 for new undergraduate and up to $20,000 for new postgraduate students commencing an accredited initial teacher education degree in 2026, in return for a commitment to teach in Australian government schools or government-run early learning settings after graduation. The program aims to attract high-achieving and diverse candidates into the teaching profession, including priority cohorts such as First Nations peoples, people from rural, regional or remote areas, people with disability, people from low socio-economic backgrounds and those for whom English is an additional language or dialect, to strengthen the future teaching workforce across Australia.
