Key takeaways

  • Its stated funding priorities are teacher recruitment and retainment and inclusive education, and it also supports individuals requiring training, so work in those areas is the clearest fit.
  • Its purpose centres on schools in the Skinners' family, and its priority area is London and the South East, so an organisation outside that family or area should check the fit closely before writing.
  • No grant range or application process is published in the annual report, so use the contact shown in its published details to ask about size and process before sending a full request.
  • Total annual giving across its programmes is £187,825, so a modest, specific request is more realistic than a large one.
