Do you have a great idea for bringing research alive in school?
Royal Society Partnership Grants of up to £3000 are available to schools to enable students, aged 5 – 18, to carry out science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) projects. Additionally they are looking to support projects on computing and data science.
The 2018 application round is now open. You will need to provide initial project details by 28 February. The school partner must start the application and then invite the STEM partner to join. Whilst the initial application must be started by the school partner so that they are the primary applicant, there need to be two project partners on the same application form. The partnership needs to be established before starting the application. The two partners are:
- School partner (the primary applicant): any teacher or support staff at the main school, such as a computing teacher or a science technician; and a
- STEM partner: an individual that is currently working in a STEM related profession, such as a researcher or analyst.
