School Tasking is growing at a rate of knots, expanding both internationally and into other disciplines (STEM, Arts and Sociology) in 2026-27 🎉
We have our lovely new Instagram and pages, but what all teams across the project are struggling for next year is financial support to make sure that we can keep providing children with the most brilliant and memorable experiences.
We've had such generous partners and sponsors over the years, but an increase in the number of participating universities means that more support is needed to help with, for example, costs for getting Year 5 teams to their local regional finals and to the University of Warwick for the Champion of Champions 🏆
We've been financially supported over the years by Addleshaw Goddard (who also host a number of our regional finals) and the Intellectual Property Office UK, and for the past couple years, English Heritage have allowed us to host our regional finals at some truly spectacular locations 🏰
As the project continues to grow, we're looking for additional support and are appealing directly to businesses with an interest in their CSR supporting an outreach project that introduces children from less advantaged backgrounds to higher education and the subjects they could study.
Could you help with:
- 💰 Financial support to allow us to continue running the project on the same scale, but with more institutions involved, reaching greater numbers of children? Our fundraising pack is here:https://taskmastereducation.com/sites/default/files/2026-02/School%20Tasking%20Fundraising%20Pack.pdf
- 👩⚖️ Enthusiastic employees who might want to support local universities running the project by sending their staff to help with classroom sessions?
- 🏰 Offering up venues to host a regional final, where we will fill the air with the joyful noise of children learning, being engaged and having a whole lot of fun?
- ⭐ All of the above...?
Please do reach out to us if you might be interested in even having an initial conversation around what support might look like. We'd LOVE to chat to you.
Plus, our sponsors are invited to the Champion of Champions final and there might even be an opportunity for a wee bit of schmoozing with Little Alex Horne himself...
Please do share as widely as possible, particularly with your Taskmaster fan contacts 😉
Thank you - we greatly appreciate it!
