What is PDG?
The pupil development grant (PDG )is designed to support improving learning outcomes and provision for students eligible for free school meals (eFSM) and looked after children (LAC). The PDG is intended to help overcome this additional barrier which prevents learners fro disadvantaged backgrounds achieving their full potential.
How is our grant spent ?
At St David’s CIW Primary, our plan for using our PDG allocation from Welsh Government is integrated into our school improvement plan (SIP). Our Grant allocation is £63,250
