Description
The Department for Education is pleased to announce the launch of the Tackling Antisemitism in Education Innovation Fund, a new initiative designed to support innovative tools, resources and mechanisms that address modern forms of antisemitism, including online hate, misinformation and the impact of polarising global events.
Backed by £1 million in 2026-27, with the potential for up to £3 million of further investment in 2027-28, the Fund forms part of a wider £7 million government commitment to tackling antisemitism across all areas of education.
The Innovation Fund will invite applications for projects that will support learners to develop critical thinking, media literacy, and the skills needed for informed, tolerant debate.
The Department welcomes applications from a wide range of organisations, including smaller groups, community-led organisations, and consortia with strong pedagogical or community expertise.
All applications must be made through the Jaeggar system.
