Physics Education Grants Scheme to Reopen for Final Round (England)
The Ogden Trust has announced that its Physics Education Grants scheme has reopened for a final funding round.
The scheme offers grants of up to £5,000 to schools, colleges and charities in England who wish to carry out projects that support the teaching and learning of physics.
Projects must be centred around physics and developed with current evidence in mind. The Trust may also consider partial funding for general science projects with a clear physics component.
Grants are split into two strands:
- Curriculum support: to support the teaching and learning of physics from 11-18 in the classroom, including equipment for teaching physics, teaching resources and teacher CPD
- Enrichment activities: to support physics extra-curricular activities for school and college students (4-18) from under-represented groups
From 2026 the Trust will refocus its support on providing free professional development opportunities for physics teachers.
The closing date for applications is 9am on 2 March 2026.
