2 Nov 2012 - 09:39 by michelle.foster

The Department for Education’s National Prospectus Grants Programme 2013-15 is now open to applications. Applicants are invited to submit proposals to improve outcomes for children, young people and families with a particular emphasis on early intervention and supporting the most disadvantaged.

The funding will provide up to £30 million for each year in 2013-14 and 2014-15 and projects will contribute to policy thinking and delivery on the ground to:
• promote excellence in early education and childcare, so enabling all children to achieve success in their early years and later education
• develop and reform services that support children with SEN, disabilities and other health needs
• develop and reform safeguarding services that protect and support children at risk of harm
• develop and reform the care system and speed up the process of adoption and
• focus and develop local services to improve outcomes for vulnerable and disadvantaged young people

The Department for Education want to work with organisations that support children, young people, mothers and fathers, and wider families and who share the commitment to:
• intervene early to support all children and young people, but particularly the most vulnerable and disadvantaged
• drive reform and make a difference on the ground, delivering excellence and giving children and young people every opportunity to excel and
• use evidence to offer support which is targeted, effective, efficient and gives value-for-money

The National Prospectus Grants Programme will be open to voluntary and community sector organisations, social enterprises and other organisations applying on a ‘not for profit’ basis for grant funded activities of national significance (England only).
