Innovation Fund

The NSN Innovation Fund is open to free schools and their trusts and is focused on supporting recipients that are:

  • Breaking the barriers of disadvantage and encouraging innovation in education
  • Working to ensure that every child – no matter their background, income, or geography – can access an excellent education advocating for young people
  • Promoting high impact educational innovation, particularly targeted in left behind communities in England.

Applicants will have to outline the project they are seeking funding for, what need within the school or trust they are trying to address and provide details for how they will deliver it. We are particularly interested in how the project is innovative, how it will be measured and its learnings shared.

If you have an innovative project to help improve educational standards for the most disadvantaged please apply the form below.

You must be a free school to apply to this Fund.
