Schools across West Lothian are set to benefit from £5,438,330 between 2022 and 2023 in funding as part of the Pupil Equity Fund.
The half a billion pounds in funding is to be made available across Scotland over the next four years - the equity funding is to be spent at the discretion of teachers and school leaders to close the poverty related attainment gap in schools.
Allocations of the fund are based on the number of pupils from primary one to third year of high school who are known to be eligible for free school meals.
