Capita’s National Conference on Implementing the Pupil Premium is taking place on Monday 26th November 2012 in Central London

Published by Susannah Ellis for Capita Conferences in Education

Capita’s 3rd National Implementing the Pupil Premium Conference provides the timely opportunity to consider how the Pupil Premium agenda is gathering pace and how best to allocate extra funding in order to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children.

Pupil Premium funding is set to continue to rise from 1.25 billion in 2012 – 2013 to 2.5 billion by 2014-15. From September 2012, schools will be held accountable for the way in which they spend this extra funding, with Ofsted inspectors looking closely at how schools are using the money and to what effect. Don’t miss this crucial opportunity to take away best practice examples from primary and secondary education and apply them in your own setting to address gaps in educational attainment and improve outcomes across the entire cohort.

Our expert speakers will cover the key topics including:

• Latest policy and research on what works in raising achievement for disadvantaged children

• How to improve accountability and demonstrate success to parents

• How Summer Schools can ease the transition from primary to secondary school

• The impact of parental involvement in raising attainment

Attend this timely event to ensure that your Pupil Premium resources are being allocated effectively and learn how best to evidence increased attainment and improved outcomes for those most in need.
