Pupil Equity Funding (PEF) was introduced as part of the Scottish Attainment Challenge programme in 2017/18. It is additional funding allocated to schools and targeted at closing the poverty-related attainment gap. In light of the disruption caused by Covid-19, in 2021/22 schools received an additional uplift to their PEF, known as Pupil Equity Fund premium to support education recovery efforts for children and young people impacted by poverty.
