When applying to one of the NPQ programmes you will need to demonstrate your programme readiness and explain your motivations. We appreciate that it can be challenging to pinpoint this within 400 words and would like to support you by sharing the elements that could be included in a strong response. Please view the NPQ Application Advice here

Applications for 2025 have now closed. The DfE have announced a one cohort per year model. We look forward to sharing updates with you ahead of the next cohort.
