Pupil Premium is additional funding provided to the school based on the number of pupils who are currently receiving or have received Free School Meals (FSM) within the last six years, for Looked After Children and for children whose parents are in the armed forces.
Pupil premium is a funding initiative designed to provide support for children from low income families to ensure they makeĀ good progressĀ andĀ achieveĀ their expected attainment. It is allocated to enable the attainment gap between disadvantaged children and their more economically advantaged peers to be narrowed. Pupil Premium Funding is to be used to put in place strategies which helpĀ raise the attainmentĀ of schoolsā most vulnerable childrenĀ diminishing the differencesĀ between them and other pupils.
It is additional funding given to schools in order to address the inequalities between those children eligible for free school meals and their peers. It is our duty to use the Pupil Premium funding effectively in order to raise achievement and diminish the difference between these children and their peers both at a school and at a national level.
