The Pupil Premium is additional funding given to schools so that they can support their disadvantaged pupils and close the attainment gap between them and their peers.

The Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011 and is allocated to schools to work with pupils who have been registered for free school meals at any point in the last six years

Schools also receive funding for children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months, and children of service personnel.

Primary schools are given a pupil premium for:
Children in Reception to Year 6 who are currently entitled to free school meals based on their family income: £1480 per pupil, per school year.
Children in Reception to Year 6 who were previously entitled to benefits-based free school meals, even if they’re no longer eligible: £1480 per pupil, per school year, for six years after they stopped qualifying for free school meals.
Children in care: £2570 per pupil, per school year.
Children previously in care who have been adopted, or have a special guardianship order, a child arrangement order or a residence order: £2570 per pupil, per school year.
Children recorded as being from service families: £340 per pupil, per school year. 

If you believe your child may be entitled to pupil premium funding and would like further support, please contact the school office and we will support the application.
