I am aware of the case made by the school in question for additional resources to combat problems of educational disadvantage in its area.
I have set the tackling of educational disadvantage as a priority and will be bringing forward proposals for a major initiative to address the needs of pupils who are encountering educational disadvantage in the primary system.
