More Money for Schools

Who are we?

At More Money for Schools, we believe that the future of our nation rests in the hands of our educators and the young minds they nurture. Quality education is the cornerstone of a thriving society, and it is imperative that our schools receive the financial support they need to provide the best possible learning environment for every student.

Our mission is simple yet powerful: to compel the government to allocate more funds towards the educational sector, ensuring that our schools are well-equipped, our teachers are adequately supported, and our students receive the top-tier education they deserve. We aim to bridge the gap between current funding and the actual needs of our schools, addressing issues such as outdated facilities, insufficient teaching resources, and the growing demands on educators.

Welcome to More Money for Schools, a crucial campaign advocating for increased government investment in our educational institutions.

The Evidence

Using research data provider by 1000's of UK educators, we have analysed key trends to identify where schools are struggling due to insufficient funding, providing clear, data-driven insights that highlight the need for more targeted government support.

Teachers in discussion

To achieve this goal, we need the invaluable insights and experiences of those on the front lines—our teachers. Your participation is critical in painting a comprehensive picture of the challenges faced in classrooms across the country. By completing our survey, you provide essential data that will strengthen our case when lobbying for increased funding. This data will highlight the specific areas where additional resources are most needed and demonstrate the tangible benefits that enhanced financial support can bring.

We urge every teacher to take a few moments to fill out the survey. Your voice is vital in this campaign, and together, we can make a compelling argument for the necessary changes.

Join us in this movement to secure more money for schools and ensure a brighter, more prosperous future for our students and our nation. Together, we can make a difference.
