NEW - Covid-19 recovery funding for schools
Increase in Funding
This week the Department confirmed funding for the education recovery programme for secondary schools will double next year, supporting pupils to catch up on lost learning. Indicative rates for schools show a typical secondary school will receive over £60,000 next year - up from around £30,000 this year, while a typical primary school will receive almost £7,000 - a further increase from last year.
