How to write a winning TIP application

We get it. You're a teacher, not a grant writer.

We want your applications for our Teaching Initiatives Program (TIP) but we understand there are only so many hours in the day. So, we've made it easier for you to apply.

What does a winning TIP application look like?

Great question! Over the past 30-plus years we've seen some great applications which have gone straight to the shortlist and ended up receiving funding.

We've seen other applications which didn't hit the mark. And for those unsuccessful applicants, considerable time spent with no outcome.

So, we've done the research for you.

There are some great online resources available but we've put a quick check list and guides together to save you time and help you write a winning TIP application.

TIP 2025 is now open.
