Description
Published in partnership with the National Education Trust, this book provides essential information and advice to help schools make best use of the Pupil Premium grant and improve outcomes for disadvantaged learners. The author visited more than 100 schools over two years and here he shares examples of innovation and excellence in their use of the additional funding. The book includes official Government directives on the Pupil Premium, which was introduced in 2011 to narrow the attainment gap between disadvantaged learners and their more affluent peers.
