About Organisation

The Spencer Foundation helps people learn better and change their lives by supporting studies in education. They have been doing this since 1971, and they are the only big foundation in the country that focuses only on this kind of research.

About the Grant

The Small Research Grants on Education Program helps make education better by giving money to people who want to study it. They can get up to $50,000 for their studies, which can last from one to five years. If they need time off from teaching to do their research, they can ask for extra money for that. They can send in their ideas three times a year. This program lets people choose what they want to study, instead of telling them what to focus on.

The aim is to support good, important, and strong research that helps answer big questions and take advantage of good chances in education. They want research that creates new ideas that will be talked about for a long time. It’s important to remember that people learn throughout their lives and in many places—not just in school.
