Our Mission
We believe education is the key to seeing lives rebuilt and communities impacted by conflict restored. We develop, support, and inform education provision where it’s needed most to give young people the chance of a better future.
Our Vision
Our vision is for all children and young people to have access to relevant, high-quality education as a basic human right. For people to be aspirational and have life opportunities and for their communities to flourish.
HOW WE WORK
It's all about teamwork.
We can’t do it alone.
We work in partnership with local and national organisations. Working in a culturally sensitive way, to equip and empower the local community.
We will provide practical and financial support to improve both the equality of access and quality of education provision available to communities impacted by conflict.
Key areas include teacher training, teacher and support staff professional development, equipment (books, resources), building costs, building adaptations, project costs, salary costs to name a few.
As an experienced team (within education delivery, education law, safeguarding and social work) the charity can also offer services and additional support. We can support the development and implementation of policies, procedures and standards to ensure our partners can set high standards, safely, and have high aspirations for all the young people they work with.
TEACHERS TOOLKIT
EQUIPPING TEACHERS TO TEACH
We want to ensure that teachers around the world have easy access to the best resources possible. Cutting down on their planning time whilst ensuring that the quality of the work they provide for their children is good. Our teacher's toolkit is designed to provide access to resources, schemes of work, templates, and more.
We can also create bespoke resources to meet the needs of the curriculum in specific countries and education systems.
GRANT GIVING PARTNERSHIPS
Our grant programme exists to support education providers (local NGOs, schools, etc) to improve the access to education in their community, the quality of education available, or both.
This is partly achieved by the provision of grants (or where a direct financial transaction is not possible, the provision of resources). All grants will be applied for by the education provider and will need to demonstrate how the funds or resources aim to improve access to, or quality of the education available to members of their community.
Grants will ideally (but not exclusively) be available to organisations that have completed our Education Development Programme, and will form part of the school development plan. The grants will ideally support the creation and implementation of new initiatives and interventions designed to achieve the previously mentioned targets, and funds to cover general running costs/ overheads, etc can be included, where they can be shown to directly link to the project. In some circumstances, we will consider funding a pre-existing project, but more detailed information will be requested as to the history and previous outcomes of the project. All projects must show how they will be sustainable (financially) beyond the agreed time scales set and/ or have set agreed outcomes.
The grant pot is made up of a proportion of our income and therefore is subject to change based on projected annual income.
