Standards Fund Guidance Manual
This area provides guidance on the Standards Fund grant to schools and information on other external funding opportunities.
Both the 2007/8 and 2008/9 Standards Fund Manuals are available as downloadable documents at the bottom of this page.
The External Funding Team have an overall co-ordination role in relation to Standards Fund with specific responsibility for the process of distributing Standards Fund cash to schools. Any queries should first of all be addressed to us. However, should you have any non-financial queries, for example on curriculum issues then they should be addressed to the relevant Advisor detailed in the contacts section of the 2008/9 Standards Fund Manual.
