The Farmington Institute

Farmington Fellowships
The Fellowships are divided into two types: university-based and school-based. Teachers given university-based Fellowships spend most of their time at one of our designated universities. Teachers with school-based Fellowships work mostly at school or at home. Fellowships can be for a continuous period for as much as half a term or as little as two weeks. Alternatively, the Fellowship may be taken in the form of day release, for instance for one day a week for a term or even a year. Fellowships are open to primary and secondary teachers of RE and teachers of RE to children with Special Educational Needs. Headteachers who wish to undertake research into either Religious Education or Values Education are also eligible to apply. Fellowships are open to teachers of all faiths or none. Applicants should preferably have had at least three years experience in their present post.The Fellowship covers the cost of tuition, board and lodging where appropriate, essential travel and, by negotiation with the school, the salary of a replacement teacher up to point 6 of the main pay scale.
