Are you ready to inspire future generations of linguists with your passion for languages? And to begin a rewarding career as a Modern Foreign Languages teacher? The British Council is awarding 175 scholarships, continuing professional development support and £27,000 of funding to talented individuals.

Eligibility criteria

To be eligible to apply you must have:

  • a 2:1, or predicted 2:1
  • or a relevant PhD or Master’s degree, or recognised equivalent

In one of the following languages:

  • French
  • German
  • Spanish

We may also consider your application if you have a degree in another subject, or a 2.2 (or predicted 2.2) if you are able to demonstrate significant knowledge in the target language.

You must also have secured a place on an eligible non-salaried languages teacher training scheme in England for the 2023 – 2024 academic year by September 2023.

How to apply

Applications for the Languages Teacher Training Scholarships are now open. The deadline for applications is Wednesday 21st June. If you have any questions, please check the FAQs here.

You can apply for our scholarship before or after you have secured your teacher training place. Please note that the British Council is not an ITT provider and receiving the British Council scholarship does not secure you a place with a teacher training provider. It is your responsibility to secure a training place on an eligible course. You can search all available courses in England using the teacher training database, but note that only non-salaried courses leading to QTS are compatible with the British Council scholarship.

The number of training places available each year is limited, and available places are expected to fill up well in advance of courses starting for the academic year 2023/24.
