Sarah Teather writes: Pupil Premium – coming to a school near you

October 14, 2011 11:05 AM

teather• [Oct 12] Sarah Teather* writes: USUALLY it's quite hard explaining how being a Liberal Democrat Minister in government makes a difference to the people in my constituency. But the Pupil Premium is an exception to that rule. It is a policy with two key characteristics - it has an identifiable impact in every local area, and it's distinctively Liberal Democrat.

Today the Government released the final Pupil Premium figures for English schools. In the financial year 2011-12 schools are receiving £488 for each child on free school meals they have on their roll. Anyone can visit the DfE website and search for their local authority and school and find out - in pounds and pence - what difference the Pupil Premium policy is making to their local school.

. . You can help by contacting your local school to find out how they are using their Pupil Premium funding, and how they are making sure they are reaching every child.

* MP for Brent Central and Minister of State (Children and Families), Education
