Enthuse partnerships works with groups of 4-8 schools and colleges to develop a bespoke 2-year action plan which includes teacher CPD and free resources. Each partnership receives £10,000 per year over 2 years (£20,000 total).
The focus of the project should be STEM related and each partnership will be supported by a STEM coach.
