We work with schools to let out their facilities to the local community. The schools benefit by rais

35% of schools are underfunded by £1 million - £2.5 million. That’s £2739 - £6849/day they need to source, every day of the year, from somewhere, whilst they are dramatically overworked and unsupported. Not sure about you but we felt that was a ridiculous situation for schools to be in, so we set about solving the problem. We’re a social enterprise that helps the schools let out their facilities

on the weekends and evenings. With everything from classrooms, to drama studios to sports fields sitting empty during this time, it’s a perfect opportunity to generate extra income without disrupting the school day.

We were honoured to host a heartfelt evening of commemoration and reflection for United Synagogue last month in The Grange Academy’s beautiful Grand Hall. Special guests included the Chief Rabbi, author Oriya Mevorach, hero and actor Yadin Gellman, and former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, making it a truly memorable gathering.

We’re thrilled to have supported organiser Danielle in bringing this event to life. She shared, “I can't speak highly enough of the service we received from Clive Hibbert, one of the team leaders. He went above and beyond, and nothing was too much trouble, especially when our requirements became a little complicated” – Danielle, United Synagogue.

At School Space, our team is dedicated to ensuring every event runs seamlessly, so hosts can focus on what truly matters.

Our Story

We're a social enterprise on a mission to provide schools with extra funds by letting out their facilities to local sports and community groups, individuals and businesses.

Budget pressures and funding shortfalls have been big challenges for schools in recent years. Whether it’s stationery or staffing, schools have to make difficult decisions, day-in day-out about where to cut and restrict resources to balance their budgets. Sitting at the heart of the community, schools have wonderful facilities that are empty outside of school hours. One way that schools can bridge the funding gap is by renting out their spaces.
