The Government's phonics match-funding scheme ends 31st October 2013
Act now to claim the remainder of the £3,000 match‐funding for your school for systematic synthetic phonics products and training
The Government is offering match‐funding of up to £3000 to all state‐funded schools in England with Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 pupils so that they can buy approved systematic synthetic phonics products and training.
The scheme will run until 31 October 2013, this means that you can now purchase DfE approved systematic synthetic phonics products and training courses at 50% discount.
Smarter Buying
If you order your phonics products through ESPO you can claim an extra 12.5% discount for orders invoiced between 1st May and 31st July 2013*
*The 12.5% discount is on phonics products invoiced between 1st May and 31st July 2013 (excluding training) from The Importance of Phonics2 catalogue and is on the amount you pay after claiming your match funding. This will be provided in the form of a credit note, available to be set against future orders and is not repayable in cash. There is a minimum credit value of £5.00, so orders invoiced during the period will need to total a minimum value of £80.00 (including match‐funding).
You can choose products and/or training from the catalogue and receive match‐funding up to a maximum of £3,000 that is, for a total spend of up to £6,000.
To buy product resources from the Importance of Phonics catalogue please send your orders directly to ESPO. Training courses can be booked directly with the training provider.
