The Scottish Government committed additional funding in the form of Pupil Equity Funding (PEF), to schools as part of the Scottish Attainment Challenge programme. This funding is allocated directly to schools and is aimed at closing the poverty related attainment gap. The aim of this framework agreement was to allow schools to contract compliantly with providers who would be able to support the pupil equity fund.
