Other Funding
The RGS-IBG Learning and Leading programme provides 16 bursaries for AS/A2 Level students to participate in geographical fieldwork summer schools. The focus for this programme is to support individuals who may not, through a range of circumstances and disadvantage, have had the opportunity to participate in high quality fieldwork. The programme also provides 16 geography teachers each summer the opportunity to attend a summer fieldwork masterclass. The summer school for teachers will bring together 16 teachers from UK schools to enhance their field teaching skills, to develop teaching resources for GCSE and A level which will be shared with others, and to reflect on how their learning can be adapted to provide quality fieldwork locally to their school.
Deadline extended to Friday 4 July 2008.

| The Fawcett Fellowships for Geography Teachers |
Applications are invited for the Fawcett Fellowships for Geography Teachers at University College London. These provide an opportunity for UK-based mid-career teachers to spend a term at UCL undertaking a self-designed programme of study. You might, for example, bring yourself up to date in particular aspects of the subject, develop new teaching materials, prepare publications or software, explore new fields, and generally rejuvenate your enthusiasm for the subject.
The funds are used primarily to finance teaching cover during the period of each Fellowship. This is normally September to Christmas, but could be from New Year to Easter. Letters of interest are invited by the end of February each year.
For further information see the UCL geography website.
