Welcome

Welcome to the Portsmouth Education Partnership (PEP) website

The PEP brings together all Portsmouth schools and partners to improve attainment and opportunities for all children and young people across the city.

As a Priority Education Investment Area, our key priorities are:

  • Literacy

    Improving early communication, language and literacy across Portsmouth.

  • Maths

    Securing a step change in attainment and progress in maths across all key stages.

  • Attendance and careers

    Maximising the opportunities for learning through a continued focus on improving school attendance.

  • Underperforming groups

    Ensuring appropriate strategies are in place to improve outcomes for currently underperforming groups.

  • Digital

    Providing training and support for school staff to build, support and enhance the use of digital technology.

For further information about our aims, see the Portsmouth Education Strategy 2023-26.

This website has been created to give education professionals in Portsmouth useful information, support and resources related to all education organisations working in the city. To share information about relevant resources, support or opportunities, please email [email protected].
