Pupil Premium

Pupil premium is funding to improve education outcomes for disadvantaged pupils in schools in England. Evidence shows that disadvantaged children generally face additional challenges in reaching their potential at school and often do not perform as well as other pupils. Individual schools were allocated funding for children from low-income families who were eligible for free school meals, looked after children and those from families with parents in the Armed Forces. If you believe your child may be eligible to Pupil Premium funding, please contact the school via the main office for assistance.

The Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011 and individual schools are allocated funding for children from low-income families who were eligible for free school meals, looked after children and those from families with parents in the Armed Forces.

Informing school about your child's free school meal status is extremely important as it attracts extra funding to support their learning in school.
