Spending

PDG

The priority of the pupil deprivation grant (PDG) is to reduce the impact of poverty on educational attainment.

The Welsh government has stated that each individual school is able to decide how it spends its allocation of money to best improve attainment. At Bedwas Junior School, we have planned a series of interventions and activities to ensure that the FSM children in school receive the maximum benefit of the pupil deprivation (PDG) grant.

Below is how the PDG grant is allocated for Bedwas Junior School and Rhydri Primary School.

PL

The professional learning grant’s focus is to develop teachers’ professional knowledge in readiness for the New Curriculum.
