Question
To ask the Scottish Government when 2022-23 Pupil Equity Funding allocations for schools in Scotland will be published.
Answer
2022-23 Pupil Equity Funding Allocations, at both Local Authority and School level, were published on 29 March 2022 and are available to access here:- Pupil attainment: closing the gap - Schools - gov.scot (www.gov.scot)
The publication of Pupil Equity Funding Allocations totalling over half a billion pounds (£520 million) over a record 4 years, underlines our ambition to continue to empower our headteachers and teachers, who know their children and young people best. We have also provided an uplift of PEF per pupil to £1,225.
