The DFID Global School Partnerships (DGSP) programme does not set up partnerships between schools in the UK and schools in developing countries. It works with schools that already have partnerships and are looking for advice and guidance and/or grants to support their links. The DGSP has awarded a total of 576 grants from January 2003 to December 2006.

The DFID Global School Partnerships programme commenced on 1 January 2003.
The increased budget of £7.5 million runs from April 2006 for three years. However, the current contract for the management of the programme ends in December 2007 so we can only provide figures for £4.4 million, the amount to be spent by that date.
(a)—£2,743,914
(b)—£1,657,148
The following figures relate to the period January 2003 to December 2006:
(a) 438 schools have received reciprocal visit grants
(b) 147 schools have received Global Curriculum Project (GCP) grants
(c) Travel grants for students of secondary school age are available in addition to the Global Curriculum Project grants—59 of the 147 GCP grants have included student travel.
