The British Council has issued a new call for proposals to support school staff that wish to study or work abroad as part of their professional development. The Funding is being made available through the Erasmus + programme – Key Action 1 Mobility Projects.
Mobility projects can cover one or more of the following: study courses, observation, job shadowing, training, and teaching. The funding is available to individuals in UK schools providing general, vocational or technical education on any level from pre-school to upper secondary education.
To successfully apply for funding for a Key Action 1 mobility project a school should be aiming to support the professional development of some or all of the school staff, as a part of the school’s European Development Plan. The mobility can last from 2 days to 2 months. The funding available varies according to the country in which the mobility project takes place. Applications need to be submitted by the school and not the individual. A mobility activity is transnational and involves minimum two participating organisations (at least one sending and at least one receiving organisation) from different countries.
Receiving organisations do not need to be identified at the time of applying for a grant. The closing date for applications 11 am on the 2nd February 2016.
