Pupil Premium
The Pupil Premium is additional funding received by schools based on the number of children from low income families – this is defined as those eligible for free school meals.
You may like to find out more about whether your child is eligible.
It is important to understand that, even if you choose not to have a school dinner, the pupil premium will benefit the pupil in the school.
In January 2015, we received a letter from the Minister of State for Schools congratulating us on our continued improvement in progress and attainment of disadvantaged pupils since 2011.
The letter stated we were;
highly effective in educating disadvantaged pupils.
The Pupil Premium has been used to support targeted intervention sessions for both individuals and small groups. A small proportion has also been used to subsidise extracurricular opportunities including music tuition and sporting activities.
