Schools Plus

Non-profit / Last updated 2 years ago

Australian Schools Plus exists to help close the education gap caused by disadvantage. We believe all children should have access to a great education regardless of their background. As a registered charity, we work with teachers and schools in disadvantaged areas to empower them with funding, coaching and resources to implement initiatives that will help their students succeed.

For supporters

We connect donors who know the importance of a great education with schools seeking funding for activities and equipment that will improve their students’ outcomes. Explore our Stories of Impact page to see the wide range of initiatives schools want to introduce to help their students. All donations over $2 are tax-deductible.

For schools

We support schools to raise funds in their community through a variety of ways including crowdfunding and Smart Giving. We also increase the connections with schools and donors. Explore our For Schools page to find out the best way Schools Plus can help your school.

Our impact

Schools Plus began fundraising to support students facing disadvantage in April 2015, after tax legislation passed by Federal Parliament confirmed our Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR1) status. So far, we have raised $26 million for schools, helped 330,000 students, and supported 1,000 schools. 

Which schools are eligible?

We use the Index of Community Socio-Educational Advantage (ICSEA) to determine if a school is disadvantaged – schools must have an ICSEA value below 1000 to be eligible for support through Schools Plus. Learn more about ICSEA on our Check Eligibility page.
