School Angel is a unique charity which relies on teachers who know thier pupils best to identify cases of hardship and need in a child. This may vary from items of school uniform or a warm coat and shoes, to a computer or specialist software, school trips, additional tuition, or adult support to allow a child to attend out of school activities etc.
Whatever we fund it is highly targeted and very much needed to help that child keep up with their peers in class, reducing stigmas, and helping them in often small but important ways so that they have the chance to achieve the best they can during their school years.
If your school has been an active member of School Angel for six months or more then it is eligible to request help. An active member means that it uses its fundraising page regularly.
All that we need is a request from the teacher explaining the circumstances of the child and what is needed. The funding we provide is nearly always delivered discreetly, with the identity of the child and help provided kept confidential.
For guidance: Please don't make 'generic requests'. For example 10 iPads or a new sandpit etc, this is not what we fund. We look to help a particular child with a specific need, which is not met elsewhere.
Our 2017 funding round is now completed and we are pleased to announce that we have been able to fund all but one request (which was a generic request) from our registered schools for help. We do still on occasion and for exceptional circumstances provide one-off discretionary grants outside of our standard award program. Get in touch with us at admin@schoolangel.org.uk if you would like to apply for assistance.
