Do you have a great idea for bringing research alive in school?
Partnership Grants of up to £3000 are available to schools to enable students, aged 5 – 18, to carry out science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) projects.
Why apply for this scheme?
The Partnership Grants scheme offers up to £3000 to UK schools or colleges to buy equipment to run a STEM investigation project in partnership with a STEM professional (research or industry). Successful projects:
-
Deliver a better understanding of the latest developments in STEM;
-
Improve perceptions of those working in STEM professions;
-
Give students pride and ownership in STEM from participation in the investigative process.
-
Applications need to be made jointly between the two project partners, where the partnership needs to be established before starting the application. The two partners are:
-
School partner: any teacher or support staff at the main school, such as a computing teacher or a science technician; and a
-
STEM partner: an individual that is currently working in a STEM related profession, such as a researcher or analyst.
