Since 2019, the Church of Ireland Board of Education (NI) has been running a funding programme to help parishes create new and innovative ways to develop their relationship/partnership with local schools.
The Board has a limited fund and wishes to distribute this as small grants to churches working with their local schools.
This article is to advise parishes that the Board is again welcoming applications to the fund.
Criteria
Should your parish consider undertaking a project in 2024/2025 you need to bear in mind the following criteria:
The allocation of funds will be made in June, Expressions of interest must be submitted by Friday May 31. Expressions of interest must be submitted to the Secretary of the Board of Education (NI) (edunorth@rcbcoi.org) and must be no longer than two A4 pages in length. This must include the context of your proposal, the key objectives linked to the above criteria, a budget of the project including local funding and support available.
The General Synod Board of Education (NI) cannot guarantee that any funding will be released but is keen to support quality projects being undertaken. The criteria may be enhanced if there are an excessive number of applications.
