Sponsorship Opportunities

Local businesses near Every Child Counts and Every Child a Reader schools are invited to become sponsors of those schools and provide up to £35,000 over three years to benefit their local community.

This will fund:

• one-to-one specialist teaching for an additional 12 children (four per year, at a cost of £2,500 per child) who would otherwise miss out on the opportunity, because the core Every Child Counts and Every Child a Reader national programmes fund only 10 children per year to work one-to-one with a Numbers Count teacher and 8 children per year to receive Reading Recovery. In schools serving socially deprived areas the need is substantially greater than this
• a special rucksack with a maths or literacy toolkit for each child having help to take home
• time from the Numbers Count or Reading Recovery teacher to manage a volunteer programme.  Sponsors might provide volunteers as trained Reading or Number Partners; to undertake financial literacy activities with children; and/or to serve on the school’s governing body.
