Zero Gravity Fund
£3000 scholarships for your top students
The Zero Gravity Fund unlocks the potential of your students who reach the best universities. We identify students within the platform who've proven their potential during their journey to uni and give them £1000 a year across three years of their degree. This accelerates their journey and lets them land the future they didn't think possible.
We've partnered with leading employers to offer your talented students from low-income backgrounds career opportunities once they reach university.

Your questions.
Answered.
Yes. We believe talented students deserve big opportunities. We're a social impact organisation that exclusively supports state school students from areas of the UK where reaching a top university is far from guaranteed. We're funded through partnerships with leading organisations that keep the Zero Gravity platform free for our students and schools.
Every UK state and grammar school is eligible for a dashboard. We'll assess your students eligibility on an individual basis, taking into account their own background and academic profile.
At Zero Gravity, we look for students who come from backgrounds and areas where reaching a top university is more of a challenge than a done deal.
To be accepted, students need to:
1) Be in Year 12/13 (England & Wales), S4/S5 (Scotland) or Year 13/14 (NI)
2) Currently attend a state school in the UK (comprehensive or grammar)
We then contextualise their academic performance based on your school and area.
Most applicants from British state schools are a great fit for Zero Gravity. This means it's best to refer as many of your students as possible, and we will work out their eligibility on an individual basis.
Register for your School Dashboard here. We'll be in touch to get you up and running in no time.
The Zero Gravity platform has been built from the bottom up according to a safeguarding-by-design methodology. Led by the advice of child safety experts, we've designed a mentoring platform that prioritises the digital safety of your students at every stage.
