Course Description
Introduction
School
budgets have always been limited but there are currently so many demands on our
funding levels that schools are often fortunate if they can break even. This
has the consequence that plans for improvement are curtailed because there are
no funds to meet the costs of developing new resources, people, or spaces
within the school. Consultants will work with school leaders to identify
project aims and clarify the rationale that sits beneath a project. They will
support the school in sourcing grant funding and look at the successful
outcomes of an adequately funded project.
Rationale
We
understand that being resourceful in challenging financial times is a growing
necessity of the skillset for school leaders. We are also mindful of the need
to support busy school leaders to find the right bid for the setting, including
planning, researching and writing a high-quality bid.
These
sessions are suitable for:
School
leaders including headteachers, school business managers, bursars and other
school leaders looking for support in developing their knowledge of how to be
successful in sourcing external funding and for practical assistance in the
grant application process.
Our consultants have experienced success in attracting grants of more than £1 million into their schools. We will work with leaders to
identify the quantum of funding required to enable a project to proceed,
identify sources of funding relevant to a planned project, clarify the key
aspects of a grant application, support with gathering evidence and support
leaders to complete grant applications.
