Future Talent Fund

The purpose of the Future Talent Fund (Fund) is to test and evaluate 'what works' to support the Most Able, Disadvantaged pupils in non-selective, state-funded secondary schools in England to fulfil their potential. The Fund will build an evidence base of good practice for this cohort, identifying clear delivery mechanisms for provision and encouraging more evidence-led led interventions, including interventions that could be funded by schools using their Pupil Premium funding.
