Reminder: Funding for UK schools 2019 – apply now!

Interested in funding for professional development? Erasmus+ funds school teachers, managers and leaders to job shadow or teach abroad - a great way to gain fresh ideas and get inspired. There’s also funding for thousands of training courses across Europe for school staff, covering topics such as School leadership, Inclusive teaching, Mental health, Digital learning, Languages, STEM, Supporting migrant and refugee children and much more.

Alongside professional development, the funding supports international pupil exchanges, and partnership projects with schools abroad. Partnership projects could be curriculum related – or address shared challenges such as early school leaving or well-being.


€36 million of funding is proposed for UK schools in 2019. The funding is open to UK schools and colleges providing general, vocational or technical education to pupils aged 3 – 18 years. Schools can apply individually, as a group of schools, or through a consortium.

Please find out more and apply for Erasmus+ Schools funding now. There are two key deadlines - 5 Feb and 21 March 2019 at 11am UK time.
