Books by Marc Rowland

The genesis for this book, and the strategy within it, is a longstanding commitment from Essex County Council to improve the life chances and life choices of disadvantaged pupils being educated in Essex. The purpose of the book is to set out a strategic, evidence-informed approach which puts learners first.

A collection of chapters by leading educators, exploring practical and insightful advice on how schools can ensure that the needs of vulnerable pupils are met, by ignoring the labels that can often damage and limit progress.

Fully updated with the 2015 policy updates from the Department for Education and published in partnership with the National Education Trust, this book provides essential information and advice to help schools make best use of the Pupil Premium grant and improve outcomes for disadvantaged learners.
