Northern Ireland – How We Can Help Primary, Secondary and University Education Transformational Schools Cross-Community Programs
Our young years leave indelible impressions. So it is with 331,000 children and young people who are school-going students in Northern Ireland.
Working with teachers and community groups the Partnership provides funding for various educational experiences both in and out of school. This is targeted efficient funding with proven results.
