The claim is confirmed by multiple official sources. The UK government's Department for Education published a press release on 7 October 2024 titled "£7 million to tackle antisemitism in education confirmed," announcing that Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson confirmed the resumption of procurement for £7 million in funding to tackle antisemitism across schools, colleges, and universities. The government's own document on antisemitism-related actions states: "We have committed £7 million of funding to tackle antisemitism in schools, colleges, and universities." Prime Minister Starmer himself referenced this investment in a Downing Street speech on 5 May 2026, stating: "in our schools, colleges and universities, we are investing £7 million to tackle antisemitism." In the parliamentary speech being checked, he narrowed the phrasing to "investing £7 million to tackle antisemitism within our universities," omitting that the funding also covers schools and colleges. However, the core factual assertion — that the government is investing £7 million to tackle antisemitism in education, including universities — is accurate. The omission of "schools and colleges" slightly narrows the stated scope but does not contradict the substance of the claim, as universities are genuinely part of the funded settings. The £7 million figure, the purpose (tackling antisemitism), and the inclusion of universities are all directly confirmed by official government sources.
