The Universal Catch up Premium allocations were released this week and shared by @Matt_Burrell @DOpsSBL @miconm having read the guidance it doesn’t prohibit spending on further investment in IT (therefore capital) and would like to invite thoughts on initial spending strategies.

Thanks for the responses to this question. @JayEllePeaElle introduces an interesting point regarding equipment for staff. One head has already asked me if UCUP can be used for staff laptops/tablets as part of an overall boost to remote learning strategies where staff have gaps.

I’ve just pulled together a UCUP template for planning expenditure including some of the suggestions made in this thread. I’ll post a link for anyone who may find it helpful. Thank you for the wonderful feedback #sbltwitter
