Pupil Premium

Pupil Premium funding is a central government grant allocated to children who are identified as needing additional support to raise their attainment to an age related level and to close the gap between their performance and that of other pupils in the school.

Our school receives additional funding via the Pupil Premium to help ensure that all groups of children have the opportunity to achieve well. Funding is linked to the number of pupils who are eligible to receive free school meals and aims to support those pupils who are identified as being disadvantaged. This also includes additional funding for children who are Looked After, Previously Looked After, and children from families who serve in the armed forces.

There are a wide variety of barriers and the school is successful in identifying them. The school’s Head Teacher (Mr. Webb) and SENCO (Mr. Caffrey) have responsibility for coordinating the provision for disadvantaged pupils.
