Applications for Funding Towards School Trips to CERN (UK)

The Ogden Trust, which promotes the teaching and learning of physics, has announced that secondary schools that are or have been members of its School Partnerships programme can apply for grants of up to £2,500 for trips to the CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research. 

The grants aim to allow disadvantaged students to experience one of the world's foremost centers for scientific research and to learn about the physics research that is taking place at CERN, as well as meet some of the physicists who work there.

Students participating in the programme must be eligible for pupil premium, the 16-19 bursary, or be a scholarship pupil at an independent school.

The average grant per application awarded in 2022-23 was £1,352. Previous members of the scheme can also apply.

The closing date for applications is the 14th June 2024.
