Lancashire pupils fell further behind peers during pandemic
English and Maths in 2021-22, compared to 55.1 per cent for all other children. Education charity SHINE said it is"saddened but not surprised" to see disadvantaged children fall behind. It meant the attainment gap was 30.7 percentage points last year – up from 27.5 in 2018-19, the last academic year uninterrupted by Covid. Nationally, 29.5 per cent of disadvantaged children reached grade five or above in English and maths, whereas 56.
Dr Helen Rafferty, senior programme manager at the charity warned that school leaders must make impossible decisions due to budget cuts just as disadvantaged children need increased support, and said that targeted support for specific children and schools in certain areas is required to close the gap.
