Liberal Democrats' education funding puts money where it's most needed - and here's the results

The 2010 Liberal Democrats national manifesto proposed the idea of the Pupil Premium, which was introduced when the Party entered Government. Head teachers decide how it is to be spent. They receive £1320 per eligible primary pupil, £935 per secondary, aimed at the most disadvantaged students. Our commitment is to ensure this funding is maintained in real terms and better yet increased. If you want to see the benefits of our policy, it's a piece of schools funding where there is clarity and accountability - you'll find up to date reports on most schools' websites about what they are doing with this extra money.
