Schools often buy displays with funds from government, local-authority and EU programmes. Whatever the programme, the preparation looks similar.
Where schools get funding
- government programmes for schools, e.g. Aktywna Tablica,
- the budget of the governing authority (municipality, county),
- EU and regional programmes,
- parents’ councils, foundations and sponsors.
Check current calls and conditions on the websites of the ministry, the regional education authority and the governing body – they change every year.
How to prepare
- Count the rooms and measure the distance to the back row – this sets the screen sizes.
- Set the requirements – system, warranty, EDLA certification, installation.
- Prepare a budget – remember 0% VAT for schools, mounts and installation.
- Collect datasheets – you will need them for the application and settlement.
We help match a set to the grant amount and prepare the specification. See also: buying through a tender.
Frequently asked questions
Can a funded purchase be made at 0% VAT?
The 0% VAT rate depends on the buyer (an educational institution), not on the source of funding.
