Pupil Premium

We are committed to ensuring that every learner can succeed, regardless of their background. The Pupil Premium is additional funding provided to our school by the government to help us support disadvantaged learners and close the attainment gap between them and their peers. This funding allows us to offer targeted support, enrichment opportunities and interventions to help every child reach their full potential.

Pupil premium eligibility

  • learners eligible for free school meals (FSM) or who have been in the past 6 years (FSM Ever 6)
  • looked after children (LAC) and previously looked after children (PLAC) - PP+ funding
  • learners with a parent who is serving or who has served in the regular armed forces in the past 6 years - SPP

Our Pupil Premium Lead is Miss Hughes, Assistant Headteacher.
