Premium Allocations

Pupil Premium

The Pupil Premium is calculated on the number of children who have been on free school meals at any time during the previous 6 years of education, those who are in the care of a local authority and those who are from families who are part of the Armed Forces. To check whether your child is eligible for Free School Meals please contact the school to speak to Mrs Phillips in the School Office.

Funding

The Pupil Premium money we receive will to be used to to raise the attainment and achievement of pupils so that children make at least expected progress and close the gap enabling pupils to reach age-related expectations through:

Provision to raise literacy and numeracy levels
Access to enrichment activities – trips and extra-curricular activities

Sports Premium

The Government is providing funding of £150 million per annum for academic years from 2013/14 to 2016/17 to provide new, substantial primary school sport funding. This funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to primary school headteachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children. The funding amount schools receive is based upon the number of children of primary age the school has at January of that year. The sport premium is to be used to increase the quality & breadth of PE & Sport provision, and increasing participation in PE & Sport.

Catch-Up Premium

As children and young people across the country have experienced unprecedented disruption to their education as a result of coronavirus (COVID-19), the government has announced funding to support children and young people to catch up. This includes a one-off universal catch-up premium for the 2020 to 2021 academic year to ensure that schools have the support they need to help all pupils make up for lost teaching time.
