The COVID-19 workforce fund will provide financial support to eligible schools and colleges for costs incurred due to staff absences from 22 November 2021 until 8 April 2022.

Following an extension from February half term until Easter, the fund is planned to end on 8 April. The claims portal will open in the spring for absence costs incurred across the current duration of the fund.
