The government has pledged to focus £700m in catch up funding for education in England on disadvantaged children, as schools and early years settings recover from the Covid-19 pandemic. The plans for supporting schools and nurseries as lockdown restrictions ease include a one off “recovery premium” for primary and secondary schools, which builds on the pupil premium already distributed to schools to support disadvantaged students.
