Better Futures Grants - 2026

Better Futures Grants provide $50,000 per year for two years to support organisations optimising opportunities for primary school aged children experiencing disadvantage to learn. 

The focus is on primary school aged children (5-12 years) experiencing education disadvantage: students from low socio-economic backgrounds, First Nations students, students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and those living in regional and remote locations.
