Anyone else worried by the fact that HTs in grammar schools have already started campaigning against the Pupil Premium? Do you think with the Lib Dems gone that the government will be committed to keeping it? It's worth a lot of money to schools like mine, our local selective is in a more deprived area than we are but takes far fewer PP students, they are now changing their admissions so that a certain number of places will go to PP students. The bright kids living nearby will finally stand a chance of getting in, rather than places being dominated by kids from wealthier backgrounds who live miles away. They haven't done this out of the goodness of their hearts but because there is a financial incentive.
