Applications for Round 2 of the 2024-25 Victorian Government Early Childhood Provisionally Registered Teacher (PRT) Grants Program are now open.

The PRT Grants Program helps approved providers support PRTs to move to full registration with the Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT).

Funding available

Up to 700 grants are available for approved providers in Victoria. Eligible providers can apply for grants of $2,872 (excluding GST) per provisionally registered teacher (PRT) they employ at a state-funded early childhood service. These grants are intended to support PRTs in obtaining full registration within the next 12 months.

How to apply

Applications must be submitted through the PRT Grants Program portal by an authorised representative of the approved provider. 

Applicants must have discussed the application with the PRT on whose behalf they are applying for the funding and must have provided the PRT with the Privacy Statement. This is available in the PRT Grants Program portal. 

Approved providers interested in applying for funding are strongly encouraged to review the PRT Grants Program Guidelines and Terms and Conditions, which are available in the Portal and on the program webpage.

Applications open 9am Monday 24 February 2025 and close at 5pm Friday 14 March 2025.
