The Trust reserves the right to limit or refuse to make an award to any applicant, however eligible, well-qualified and meritorious, in the following circumstances:

1. if, in the informed opinion of the Awards Committee, the principal object of an applicant in seeking assistance from the Trust is to avoid taking out a student loan/s or bursary; and
2. if, in the informed opinion of the Board, there is insufficient income accruing to the Trust at any given date to allow a relevant and adequate award to be made without prejudicing the good governance and proper management of the Trust, as required under the Scheme approved by the Charity Commission.

1. a 'foundation' or first degree programme which, though in educational studies and moving applicants towards teaching in schools, does not automatically include QTS as an integral component;
2. a higher degree or further qualification with the intention to join the educational 'civil service', eg the inspectorate or the policy development team within a local authority education department taking the teacher away from classroom teaching;
3. a doctoral level degree to carry out educationally related research not relevant to or only indirectly relevant to classroom teacher education/training;
4. a degree or degree-equivalent qualification at any level with the intention, in due course, of ceasing to be a professional classroom practitioner and going 'freelance', eg becoming an 'educational consultant' or a writer of textbooks;
5. a degree or degree-equivalent qualification related to non-school classroom-based teaching, eg TESOL; or that which may be sought for the purposes of engaging in any activity outside the school classroom;
6. a theological training or course of study.
