    Bradford schools are being invited to apply for a share of £5m grant funding to run activities which help their pupils to develop life skills

    The Essential Life Skills funding aims to help every school in the Bradford district to run new extra-curricular activities with the aim of cultivating resilience, teamwork and communication.

    This support is available to Bradford schools and colleges after the district was chosen to be an Opportunity Area, to boost social mobility through education.
