Grant News
Teachers in the North of England can now apply for grants of up to £25,000 over two years, along with tailored training and support, for projects that help disadvantaged young people to realise their academic potential.
The funding is being made available through the Let Teachers Shine competition, which aims to find the country's best teachers and some fresh, imaginative and practical ways to raise attainment among disadvantaged students in English, Maths or Science.
The SHINE Trust is particularly interested in projects that are innovative and have the potential for scalability.
Ten grants are expected to be awarded.
After the initial 2 years of support, SHINE invites the most promising projects to apply for future funding, offering long-term backing to help scale their ideas.
The closing date for applications is midnight on the 14th January 2026.
