Pupil Premium

Please read the information below which gives details of our Pupil Premium Grant and how we allocate the funding.

The Pupil Premium is an allocation of additional funding provided to schools to support specific groups of children who are vulnerable to possible underachievement. These include pupils who are entitled to free school meals or have been in the last 6 years; those looked after by the local authority and the children of armed service personnel.

All schools are required to report on the amount of funding received and details of  that the allocation will be spent. Schools are also required to report on details of how the previous academic year’s allocation was spent, and the effect of this expenditure on the educational attainment of those pupils at the school in respect of whom grant funding was allocated.

Figures in brackets indicate pupil premium pupils. For the year 2023 - 2024, the school had 14 pupils in Year 6 eligible for pupil premium funding.
