Pupil Premium

Pupil Premium is additional funding paid to schools in receipt of disadvantaged pupils (pupils who have been registered for free school meals (FSM) at any point in the last six years), any children of parents serving in the armed forces and children who are looked after continuously by the local authority for more than six months.

Schools receive this funding to support their eligible pupils and narrow the attainment gap between them and their peers. The links below include details of how we have spent pupil premium in the last two financial years and the impact of the spending.

If your child does not have Free School Meals (FSM), but may be eligible because of your family’s income level, please contact the office (in confidence) to register them. Even if you do not wish them to have the meal, this would mean the school could still claim Pupil Premium funding that may be used to help your child.
