Pupil Premium

The Government believes that the Pupil Premium funding, which is additional to main school budget, is the best way to address the current underlying attainment inequalities between disadvantaged children and their wealthier peers by ensuring that funding to tackle disadvantage reaches the pupils who need it most.

As a school, we aim for all pupils to fulfil their potential and, as a result, we make organisational and resource decisions based upon supporting the best progress for all.  It is important to note that, just because a child is within a certain category such as Free School Meals, this does not mean that they are falling behind.  Therefore, we aim to use the funding to best impact those children who require additional support as well as those categorised as disadvantaged.  Supporting the achievement of any child can happen in a wide variety of ways such as:

• specific adult support
• classes outside of the normal school time
• educational resources
• developing parental engagement
• providing learning experiences that engage and enthuse
