<p>The first window for schools to claim funding back for exceptional costs due to
COVID-19 closed on 21 July. The following payments against claims within the published
scope of the fund have been arranged for schools in the named areas for those costs
incurred between March to July 2020:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>Paid
in September 2020</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>To be paid in November 2020</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Total</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Sefton<sup>1</sup></p></td><td><p>£289,962</p></td><td><p>£491,796</p></td><td><p>£781,758</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Merseyside<sup>2</sup></p></td><td><p>£2,133,315</p></td><td><p>£2,953,468</p></td><td><p>£5,086,783</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>North

</p><p>Schools also made claims for costs outside of the published scope of the fund
and an assessment is currently being undertaken to determine which of these other
costs can be reimbursed. We expect to write to schools in November to confirm the
outcome of that assessment.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><sup>1</sup> Schools
