Wellington College has given us a grant for schools in Bracknell Forest to support refugees. We must use the funding for education purposes and to improve outcomes for children.
Families facing money problems can get some of this funding for their child's education support needs.
It could be used for things like:
- laptops for completing schoolwork
- school uniform
- stationery and other school equipment
- activities such as after school clubs or school trips
This grant cannot be used for direct teaching costs such as one-to-one tuition or language support.
Eligibility
Funding is available for children in refugee schemes who:
- have educational support needs
- live in Bracknell Forest or attend a Bracknell Forest school
How to apply
Schools and the council’s family link workers will help you access this support. They will fill in a short application form and include supporting evidence. This provides monitoring information and record keeping.
To apply, contact your school or family link worker.
