Funding information service Grants Online has launched Grants 4 Schools with information
for schools on raising funds from UK Government, the EU, Lottery, grantmaking trusts
and commercial sponsorship sources.
Grants Online claims that the new site is “the
UK’s first web resource dedicated to supporting schools in raising funds” from these
sources.

The site’s grant funding and sponsorship information are designed to be relevant
to primary, secondary and special schools within both the state and independent 
sectors. The funding sources are those that fall outside the scope of a school’s
main budget.

The site includes a a searchable grants database to help users locate relevant grants
for their project, and a funding directory and ‘mind map’ to give an overview of
the funds available.

As well as information on the latest bidding opportunities and calls for proposals,
the site also highlights upcoming application deadlines.

As well as providing information on grants supporting school core activities Grants4schools
also provides information on grants relevant to the Government’s Extended Schools
agenda. This includes information on funding to support issues such as childcare,
health and social care, parenting support, family and lifelong learning, sports 
and arts activities, ICT access and study support, and adult/family learning.

you can subscribe to the fortnightly Grants 4 Schools Funding Alert Newsletter for
£50 + VAT per year, and shortly the site will offer the Grants 4 Schools Funding
