Extra money put aside to help children with the move from primary to secondary school.

19 Sheffield schools will be opening their doors this summer to help some of the most disadvantaged pupils in our area with the big step up from primary to secondary school.

Many pupils find the move to a bigger school and a more challenging curriculum daunting. This can lead to falling results and they often never catch up again.

To help pupils who are especially vulnerable to falling behind, those on free school meals or looked-after children, Liberal Democrat Leader, Deputy Prime Minister and Sheffield Hallam MP, Nick Clegg has launched the first Summer Schools programme.
