Funding is available for teachers and headteachers to undertake short visits to a partner school in any country to set up a curriculum based partnership or develop an existing link.
Travel, board and lodging costs can be funded. The maximum grant per person for a visit to China is £1000.
An area link may be between a local authority, an education action zone, a cluster of schools or any other group of schools working with an equivalent grouping overseas. The application should be submitted by the visit co-ordinator. The co-ordinator can apply for funding for up to ten people to vist the partner area to develop educational partnerships at both an institutional and a strategic level. This link can include primary schools, secondary schools, special schools, sixth form colleges and further education colleges (involved in the education of 16-19 year olds).
