Book Grants 2022
- Published: 02 June 2022
The DE has announced that once-off funding is being made available to primary schools to purchase books, audio books and other media for the purposes of improving their existing literacy-resource banks.
The grant to schools will be paid in line with recognised pupil enrolment on 30 September 2021. The grant paid to primary schools with an enrolment of equal to or less than 60 pupils is based on a minimum enrolment of 60 pupils. The grant rate is €21 per pupil for all recognised primary schools. Schools are not required to apply for this grant funding as the grants are paid directly to schools.
The grant cannot be used for the purchase of textbooks or to supplement the book-grant funding currently provided annually.
