Grants for Schools

The Roman Society's Roman Studies Committee makes grants to schools to help promote the teaching of Latin and Roman studies. Most of the grants are awarded for the purchase of textbooks and other books and resources for Roman studies, but the Committee also makes awards to schools and museums organising lectures or study days on Roman themes, especially if they benefit large numbers of children throughout the year and may be repeated in successive years. The Committee does not offer grants to support one-off school trips, workshops or events. Applications from schools planning to start courses in Latin are particularly welcome. The Society also offers grants for Minimus, the Primary Latin Project. The program is supported by the Polonsky Foundation.
