Grant Directories

The Ogden Trust provides funding for secondary schools to support trips to CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research which is, an intergovernmental scientific research organisation dedicated to particle physics near Geneva on the Franco-Swiss border and operates the world's largest particle physics laboratory.  The aim is to ensure that students, regardless of their background or financial situation, can experience this inspirational opportunity. Secondary schools in a partnership or previously in one can apply for funding to support students facing financial barriers or extenuating circumstances.  Trips should not occur before approval, which takes approximately four weeks. All UK secondary schools in the Ogden School Partnerships programme or previously active are eligible to apply.

The Connecting Classrooms through Global learning programme provides grants of up to £35,000 to clusters of schools or one-to-one school partnership to support a wide range of global learning activities, including training for teachers and supply cover, reciprocal visits to international partners schools, and hosting community events. The funding is available to schools with existing partnerships or those seeking to develop new partnerships. There are no application deadlines; and applications can be submitted at any time.
