Pupil Premium / Disadvantaged

 What is Pupil Premium?

Pupil Premium is extra funding for schools to help disadvantaged pupils achieve their full potential.

The amount of Pupil Premium funding schools receive is decided by how many disadvantaged pupils they have – schools then receive funding per Pupil Premium-eligible child.

Schools must spend their funding in line with a ‘menu’ of approaches, based on expert evidence of what works when it comes to improving the outcomes of disadvantaged children.

Schools must allocate spending across the following three key areas:

• Support high-quality teaching, such as staff professional development
• Provide targeted academic support, such as tutoring
• Tackle non-academic barriers to academic success, such as difficulties with attendance, behaviour, and social and emotional wellbeing.

It is up to schools to decide how exactly to spend their pupil premium so that it supports pupils who need it most.

The following documents details our current and historic strategies for our Pupil Premium.
