Support for schools

The Royal Institute of Philosophy sponsors conferences for teachers and students of philosophy in UK schools and sixth form colleges, as well as other events run by departments of philosophy for schools.

Philosophy in schools 

Since 1997, the Jacobsen Trust has made available to the Royal Institute funds to promote philosophical work in schools. Our teachers tackle basic philosophical topics concerning the nature of knowledge, ethics, the mind, free will, aesthetics and so on.
