SAPS Associate Awards: Grants for science teachers and technicians

Awards | Award Holders | Applying for an Award | Application Forms

 

Science and Plants for Schools supports UK teachers, HLTAs and technicians with new ideas for teaching about science through plants.

We offer grants between £50 and £500 to cover your time & costs in developing a teaching resource, and will offer support and scientific contacts if necessary.

We also offer grants of up to £100 to fund teacher and technician-led professional development, such as TeachMeets.

Proposed resources should aim to enhance students' understanding of plants at secondary and post-16, whether in a broad sense of fundamental principles, lab techniques (e.g. time-lapse photography), or a specific focus on an area of plant biology.
