How pfeg is funded
We work with many different organisations to support teachers and provide resources, while retaining our independence
pfeg is an independent charity which gets its funding from a variety of supporters in government, the statutory sector and in business. We are not affiliated to, or led by, any one organisation and do not, in any way, market or sell financial products or services.
