    SCHOOLS IN GLASGOW GET FUNDING BOOST

    Schools in Glasgow will receive approximately £7.7 million in 2017/18 to help close the poverty-related attainment gap, the Scottish Government announced this week.

    More than £45 million of dedicated funding will be provided to primary and secondary schools across Scotland in 2017/18 to help pupils from low-income backgrounds succeed at school.

    The Scottish Attainment Challenge is providing £750 million during the course of this Parliament to tackle the poverty related attainment gap. It prioritises improvements in literacy, numeracy, health and wellbeing of children adversely affected by poverty in Scotland’s Primary and Secondary schools. This funding takes the Challenge Authorities and Schools Programme into its third successive year.

    Nine local authorities and an additional 72 individual schools have been allocated funding from the Scottish Attainment Challenge, for education initiatives and projects targeting Scotland’s most deprived children.

    Commenting, SNP MSP James Dornan said:

    “Improving the education and life chances of our children and young people is the defining mission of the SNP in government.

    “The Scottish Government are providing £750 million during the course of this Parliament to tackle the poverty-related attainment gap – and schools in Glasgow will benefit to the tune of £7,665,677 this year through our Attainment Challenge.

    “This latest round of funding will ensure that schools where the need is greatest have substantial additional funding for the coming year to improve literacy, numeracy and health and well-being.

    “I’m delighted that schools in Glasgow are benefitting from this funding, which is targeted to improve the life chances of children and young people in Scotland.”
