Prodigy Finance’s $310M round (2024-11-07) stands far above every other disclosed amount in this UK education list: the next-largest disclosed rounds are $15M (Napo, 2025-02-26; MyEdSpace, 2025-10-04), while the rest largely sit in the low single-digit millions and below (e.g., StudentCrowd at $9M on 2026-04-30; Visibly at $8M on 2024-06-10). The disclosed-funded activity also clusters by geography: London appears 22 times across the 50 rows, compared with Manchester (3) and Liverpool (2).
Temporally, the newest entry is Gaia Learning’s Seed round in London on 2026-07-14, while the oldest shown is The Allergy Team on 2023-06-07—covering over three years. Stage and disclosure also skew toward lack of disclosed detail: 34 of 50 rows include disclosed amounts, and many recent entries carry “Series Unknown” labels (e.g., Safer Sphere on 2026-06-02 and Cornish Pirates on 2026-05-09), creating a mix where only a subset of rounds are directly comparable by size.

Frequently asked
Which round is the clear outlier by amount, and what sits immediately below it among disclosed deals?
Prodigy Finance’s disclosed $310M (2024-11-07) is the dominant outlier; the next-largest disclosed amount is $15M, appearing twice at Napo (2025-02-26) and MyEdSpace (2025-10-04). From there, disclosed rounds drop to the single-digit millions and lower, such as StudentCrowd’s $9M (2026-04-30) and Visibly’s $8M (2024-06-10).
Do funding rounds cluster in a narrow time window near the top of the list?
Yes, the most recent entries (2026-06-08 through 2026-07-14) include Gaia Learning ($540K on 2026-07-14), Cantilever Music ($330K on 2026-06-08), and Safer Sphere (2026-06-02, undisclosed), indicating a steady stream of small-to-mid sized or undisclosed rounds in mid-2026. The list spans 2023-06-07 (The Allergy Team) to 2026-07-14 (Gaia Learning), so the clustering is most visible at the recent end rather than across the full range.
Is London over-represented compared with other cities in this dataset?
London is the clear concentration point, appearing 22 times across the 50 rows, while Manchester appears 3 times and Liverpool 2. Examples include multiple London entries at different sizes and stages, such as Oxford Medical Simulation ($7M on 2026-03-16) and Prodigy Finance ($310M on 2024-11-07).
How much comparability exists based on disclosed vs undisclosed amounts?
Out of 50 rows, 34 include disclosed amounts and 16 are undisclosed, which limits how consistently round sizes can be compared. Notable undisclosed examples among recent rows include Safer Sphere (2026-06-02), Cornish Pirates (2026-05-09), and Numan (2026-03-19), alongside disclosed rounds like StudentCrowd ($9M on 2026-04-30) and CNC Robotics ($810K on 2026-04-09).
Which stage label pattern is most common, and how does it show up in recent entries?
“Series Unknown” is a frequent label in the dataset’s more recent months, appearing on entries such as Safer Sphere (2026-06-02, undisclosed), Cornish Pirates (2026-05-09, undisclosed), and Orbital Education (2025-07-18, undisclosed). Disclosed-size examples with a non-specific stage label include Oxford Medical Simulation ($7M, 2026-03-16) and Napo ($15M, 2025-02-26), showing that both disclosed and undisclosed rounds can sit under “Series Unknown” in this slice.
