Marie Clay
Marie Clay (1926-2007), the founder of Reading Recovery, had a passionate belief in the potential of 'ordinary' teachers to achieve extraordinary things through professional learning.
In her honour the European Centre for Reading Recovery established the Marie Clay Professional Learning Fund. This provides annual bursaries, totalling £2,000, giving Reading Recovery teachers or teacher leaders opportunities to attend national and international professional development events.
With the support of alumni, friends of staff of the Institute of Education we have been able to provide even more opportunities for Reading Recovery teachers and teacher leaders. You can join donors and support the Marie Clay Professional Learning Fund by giving online today.
Apply
Applicants must be registered as a Reading Recovery teacher or teacher leader within England, Republic of Ireland, Jersey or Denmark, and be working in a local authority (or equivalent) at the time of application.
