Pupil Premium

What is Pupil Premium? How does it benefit your child?

Since 2011/12 schools have received Pupil Premium Funding.  The amount of funding is determined directly by the number of ‘looked after children’, children receiving free school meals and children of service families.

We continually strive to ensure that teaching and learning opportunities meet the needs of all our pupils. Our ambition is to ensure that appropriate provision is made for pupils who belong to vulnerable groups and that the needs of disadvantaged pupils are adequately assessed and addressed.

We recognise that not all pupils who receive free school meals will be socially disadvantaged and that not all pupils who are disadvantaged are registered or qualify for free school meals. Therefore when allocating funding we use a wide range of criteria.
