The Tipton Education Fund was established to raise the educational attainment of Tipton. The purpose of the Fund is to support schools and community projects in Tipton.

Through this fund, we aim to support projects which meet one of the following themes:

• Overcome barriers to learning e.g. using art, drama, sport or music as an engagement tool,
• Raising aspirations of children and young people,
• Supporting family learning and encouraging healthy living,
• Encouraging and supporting children to read outside of the school day,
• Providing enrichment opportunities for children, young people and families that they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. For example, learning how to cook together, arts, gardening etc.

Small grants of up to £3,000 per annum are available for projects to be delivered within a 12-month period. Click here to apply.

Large grants of up to £10,000 per annum are available for collaborative projects to be delivered within a 24 month period – these applications will need to demonstrate the partnerships, added value and match funding. Click here to apply.
