It sounds like it would be a very useful thing if there could be a page on the National Science Learning Centre website  http://www.sciencelearningcentres.org.uk/?page=2

 with this consolidated information and weblinks.

Dear Alison,

 

Teachers might be interested in the Science Bursaries scheme run by the Nuffield Foundation, where first year A-level students can apply for holiday placements at university science departments or in industry.

More information is here: http://www.nuffieldfoundation.org/go/grants/nsbsc/page_394.html

 

Best wishes

Hi Alison

 

The Royal Society has done a similar thing covering some of the bigger schemes, their list of funding sources can be found at: http://www.royalsoc.ac.uk/page.asp?id=1999

*Apologies for cross-posting*

 

Hello everyone (is it too late to be wishing a Happy New Year?)

 

I'm hoping the immense PSCI-Com brains & experience out there can help me - I am trying to compile a list of funding sources which Schools or Teachers can apply for, to help them with paying for science activities, whether internal or external.  This could be in partnership with scientists, for them to run science activities or for getting to external events and so on.

 

Any information on funding sources you know of, no matter how small, obscure, regional or unlikely would be most appreciated.

 

Many thanks in anticipation...

 

Alison.
