Grants available for Ealing schools

Ealing schools could potentially receive funding of up to £50,000 per annum for three years.

John Lyon's Charity gives grants for the benefit of children and young adults in
nine boroughs in northwest London. The charity seeks ‘to enhance the conditions of life and improve the life chances of young people through education’.

Applications are invited from groups of schools, in partnership with local voluntary organisations where appropriate, for programmes aimed at supporting their most challenged pupils, strengthening links with home life and coordinating the support of other available professionals.

A typical application might center on a key worker, based at the ‘lead school’, whose brief would be to ‘project manage’ support for a ‘caseload’ of named individual young people.
