How can schools fund a wellbeing program with a small budget?

Start with free options, use funding you may already have, and only pay for what your school needs. GWG quotes each school individually and offers discounts to smaller schools.

Ways to make it work

  • Try it free. Teachers can create a free GWG HQ account and use sample lessons before the school spends anything.
  • Use existing funding. Victorian government schools can use their Mental Health Fund for programs on the Menu, which includes GWG.
  • Bundle. Combine GWG HQ with a presentation or workshop for better value.
  • Ask about small school pricing. Discounts are available for smaller schools.
