Pupil Premium

The Pupil Premium is an element of school funding aimed at narrowing the gap in attainment between certain disadvantaged groups of pupils and those who are more well off. Since its inception funding has been allocated on the basis of individual pupils, who were eligible for free school meals, for looked after children in care for more than six months and children whose parents are in the armed forces.

 

In 2020-21 funding was calculated on the basis of £1,345 for each pupil,  and in 2021–22 it is currently £1,345 per pupil. It is for the schools to decide how the Pupil Premium is spent, since they are best placed to assess the additional provision which should be made for individual pupils.

 

(Note: information related to individual pupils remains confidential).
