Funding through the LinkedUp award scheme is available to help groups of teachers in primary, middle and secondary schools and 16-19 institutions meet the cost of generating the development of new approaches to language learning e.g. by developing teaching and learning resources.

The LinkedUp award scheme is funded by the DCSF as part of the Links into Languages initiative, and offers financial support for innovative curriculum development projects carried out by the language teaching community. Over two years it will fund more than 100 projects in all parts of England.
