Agenda item
City Premium Grant Allocations 2020/21
Report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services.
To be read in conjunction with the non-public appendix at item 31 of the agenda.
Minutes:
Members considered a report of the Director of Community & Children’s Services regarding the 2020/21 City Premium Grant Allocations.
The figure assigned to Newham Collegiate Sixth Form (NCS) was clarified as a comma fell in the wrong place. The Proposed City Premium Grant 2020/21 for NCS should read 150,000.
It was noted that the second recommendation on the £330k supplementary City Premium Grant could be considered by the Policy & Resources Committee under urgency procedures. A decision would not, therefore, need to wait until their September meeting as the report header indicated.
RESOLVED, that
· The release of City Premium Grant funding to City academies for academic year 2020/21 be approved as per Schedule 1 below:

· The Board note the balance of the core City Premium Grant funding will be rolled into a second, smaller funding round in January 2021 following the school performance scrutiny meetings and based on greatest areas of need.
· The Board note that it will receive evaluations of the impact of City Premium Grant funded projects delivered over 2020/21 at the November 2021 Education Board meeting. This evaluation will include projects funded by the supplementary City Premium Grant to address educational gaps brought about by school closures.
