Applications for the 2025 Reading Australia Fellowship are officially open!
This $15,000 fellowship will support an experienced English and literacy teacher or teacher librarian to undertake professional skills development and career-enhancing opportunities. From 2025, Fellows can also reserve up to $1,000 from their grant money to put towards relief as they finalise their report or present at conferences.
Previous Fellowship projects have included developing a respectful, culturally appropriate, and responsive approach to how First Nations literature is taught in schools; AI and the Australian voice; and combating aliteracy with Australian literature.
