“My school have used PledgeMySeat to not only educate our pupils in being responsible global citizens, it also allowed us to raise much needed funds for the schools own benefit.

PledgeMySeat allowed us to do this in a way that truly captured the imagination of pupils, teachers and parents alike”. Dr Helen Thompson, Bedale High School, North Yorkshire.

We have a simple aim. We’d like every school in the UK to pledge at least one seat per classroom. We understand schools are undertaking a variety of fundraising activities all of the time and PledgeMySeat provides a fun, topical and educational way of doing this.

Whatever the amount of funds raised, we would encourage schools to keep any excess amount, once the cost of seats has been deducted. What schools then do with those funds is entirely up to them. Perhaps they could be used to fund extra sports equipment, contribute towards class outings or even donate directly to one of our charity partners.

We also have a number of prizes for the top three schools who pledge the greatest number of seats and will be announcing details shortly.

We have provided ideas for lesson planning and teacher resources below and these are free to download.
