The Department for International Development (DFID) has announced that the contract for the new three year DFID Global School Partnerships programme has been awarded to the current consortium partners. The programme has been delivered by the British Council, Cambridge Education Foundation, UKOWLA and VSO since its inception in 2003. The new contract will run from 1 April 2009 to 31 March 2012.
Current support to schools will continue, and in due course we will be announcing new initiatives to both promote an increase in the number of global school partnerships and enhance the sustainability of existing partnerships.
