Inclusive Schools Fund

Page Content

The Inclusive Schools Fund supports small innovative building projects that make a big difference to meeting the educational and social needs of children and young people with disabilities and additional needs.

Inclusive education is about ensuring that all students, regardless of disabilities or other differences, are able to fully participate, learn, develop and succeed in Victorian government schools.

Since 2015, 234 primary, secondary and specialist schools have been successful in securing funding for projects such as outdoor sensory gardens and learning areas, specialist play and recreation equipment, and adapting indoor learning spaces to be more inclusive.

The 2020-21 Victorian State Budget allocated an additional $20 million to this fund.

Round 6 of the Inclusive Schools Fund closed on Friday 19 February 2021.

Round 6 Guidelines (PDF, Word), factsheet (PDF, Word) and FAQs (PDF, Word).
