The Director of the Museum of London to be heard.

The Director of the Museum of London updated the Board on the recently launched City of London School Visits Fund. So far 1,712 pupils had benefited from the fund, of which £10,000 had been committed. 35 schools had applied to the fund, including 21 maintained schools, 8 academies, 5 special schools and 1 free school. The average pupil premium entitlement among applicant schools was 43%. Tower Bridge was proving the most popular venue for visits, followed by the Museum of London.

In response to a request, the Director agreed to circulate a written note outside of the meeting.
