This fund is available to support schools in embedding practices that can benefit the service children and their school.  Applications are accepted from publicly-funded schools, academies and free schools throughout the UK who meet the eligibility criteria.  Local Authorities are also able to apply in support of these schools.

The MOD Education Support Fund (ESF) is a £6million fund available to publicly funded schools, academies and free schools throughout the UK to mitigate the effects of significant mobility and/or deployment of their service communities.

Schools are a critical part of supporting our service families.  Children may have to change school when a service parent is posted or a school may support a pupil when a parent is absent for long periods of time.

This fund is available to support schools in embedding practices that can benefit the service children and their school.

The fund is different from the Armed Forces Community Covenant Grant Scheme, which is open to a wider variety of organisations and seeks to forge closer ties between Military and local communities.

Bids open from 1st June to 30th September.
