Nick Clegg announces start of Pupil Premium
The Liberal Democrats in Government have set out plans for a four-year, £7 billion investment in improving opportunities for the most disadvantaged children in this country. It means that we deliver on a promise that we put on the very front page of our manifesto: giving a fair chance to every child. Every disadvantaged two year-old will be entitled to 15 hours free early education - in addition to the existing entitlements at the ages of three and four. Every poor school child will get additional help from a Pupil Premium paid to their school.
