Congratulations to the 19 graduates of the Senior Leadership – Aspiring Principals Leadership Program (SL-APLP) who were recently awarded School Leadership Institute scholarships.

The recipients of the Scholarships for School Leaders from Cohort 4 of the SL-APLP will each receive $15,000 to complete postgraduate or higher degree study at a recognised Australian university.

All 19 recipients have chosen to complete a Masters of Educational Leadership at the University of Wollongong. Five recipients have already commenced their studies, with the remainder to start in Semester 1, 2022.

“Congratulations to the successful recipients of this fantastic scholarship program,” SLI Director Joanne Jarvis said.

“These scholarships will support our recipients through the next phase of their leadership journey, allowing them to connect with world-class scholars, researchers and practitioners as they continue to grow as leaders and positively influence the learning of teachers and students in NSW public schools.”

The Scholarship for School Leaders program supports principals, Directors Educational Leadership (DELs) and SL-APLP Alumni to undertake postgraduate or higher degree study, to lead improvement in student learning.

The $15,000 scholarships help cover the cost of unit fees and/or ancillary course costs.

Applications for the next round of the scholarships will open in early 2022.
