    Brief

    The Scottish Government offers Pupil Equity Funding (PEF) through a flexible framework agreement to support schools in narrowing the poverty-related attainment gap. Schools receive direct funding allocations to implement interventions and services that improve educational outcomes for disadvantaged pupils. This framework enables schools to procure compliant services and support from approved providers who specialise in addressing educational inequality. Suppliers can join this framework to offer services such as tutoring, learning support, mental health services, or other interventions that help close the attainment gap and improve pupil achievement.
