Education Recovery further additional funding 2020-2021: local authority allocations

We provided additional funding of £50 million for the recruitment of additional teachers and support staff that may be needed in the 2020-2021 school year to compensate for any loss of learning suffered by pupils during the COVID-19 lockdown, as well as to bring much needed resilience to the education system. Details of the funding allocations for each of the 32 local authorities are available.

In addition to the previous £50 million additional funding, we have provided a further additional funding of £30 million for the recruitment of additional teachers. The following table shows the allocations by the 32 local authorities.
