Description

This funding program in Berlin supports public schools, school networks, and parent associations in establishing school-based peer-teaching initiatives, where older students accompany younger ones in their learning. The goal is to increase equal opportunities and learning motivation, especially for socially disadvantaged students. Funding is provided for allowances or pocket money for the supervising peers as well as for incurred organizational costs. Evaluation is carried out according to clearly defined criteria: a special social reference with proof of the participants' neediness and a convincing concept based on the peer-teaching principle are central. Applications can be submitted continuously, ensuring rapid and flexible project implementation.

Interested organizations must submit a detailed project description and a transparent cost breakdown. The required own contribution is minimal; full cost coverage is possible for schools with a high proportion of disadvantaged students. Through participation, the supervising students acquire not only subject-related competencies but also develop social skills and a sense of responsibility. This funding offer helps to establish school partnership exchanges, in which learning mentorships between different grade levels are created and contribute to strengthening school cohesion in the long term.
