The quality of teaching and learning and the standard of the curriculum is of paramount importance and in order for those pupils who receive the Pupil Premium to achieve well. In this way, all pupils will benefit from a differentiated curriculum where challenge is provided for all.
Pastoral support to improve attainment
Staff working with pupils ensure that targeted children are supported and the sessions focus upon improving attitudes to learning, social relationships in school and attainment. These sessions are planned to meet pupils needs. Staff that may support pupils are teachers, teaching assistants, the Family Liaison Officer team and Counsellor.
Our provision aims to enable pupils to express their emotions, establish better social relationships and enable children to be supported appropriately within school.
Targeted support to accelerate learning and increase attainment and progress
Interventions and boosters delivered by teachers and teaching assistants provide focused support for pupils and this is decided on an individual basis, informed by assessment and teacher knowledge of the pupil.

What is it?
The pupil premium is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils of all abilities and to close the gaps between them and their peers.
It was introduced in April 2011 and is allocated to schools to work with pupils who have been registered for free school meals (FSM) at any point in the last six years. Looked after children and those of service personnel also attract funding.
What Funding Will School Receive For Each Pupil Premium Child?
In the 2022-23 financial year, schools will receive the following funding for each child registered as eligible for free school meals at any point in the last 6 years:
£1,385 for pupils in reception year to year 6
“Looked after” children receive £2,410
Previously in care or adopted receive £2,410
Service children receive £320
Early Years pupils £342
How Do I Know If My Child Is Entitled To Pupil Premium Funding?
Free School Meals (FSM) when transferring to Universal Credit
Since April 2018, the Department for Education have provided a Transitional Protection to make sure that children would not lose their eligibility for Free School Meals when parents are transferred from other benefits to Universal Credit. The Transitional Protection will be closed by the Department for Education at the end of the Summer Term so all parents will need to re-apply for Free School Meals (FSM) before the start of the Autumn term in September if you would like your eligibility to continue.
Two categories of eligibility
Going forward there will be two categories of eligibility, Targeted and Expanded.
TARGETED ELIGIBILITY
Universal Credit with an annual net earned household
income of no more than £7,400
Support under Part VI of the Immigration and
Asylum Act 1999
The guaranteed element of the State Pension Credit
Parents with No Recourse to Public Funds contact the School about how to apply under this criteria
Children eligible through the Targeted category will be entitled to Free School Meals, be included in funding provided to schools for the Deprivation Pupil Premium and will be eligible for Holiday Access Fund vouchers (while the scheme is provided). This may also help with eligibility for Free School Transport. The additional support would also be available for children who would receive a free school meal due to being taught in the Reception, 1 and 2 year groups if their parents were receiving one of the qualifying benefits and made a claim.
EXPANDED ELIGIBILITY
Universal Credit with an annual net earned household
income over £7400
Children eligible through the Expanded category will be entitled to Free School Meals only. No other additional support is available through this category of eligibility.
Making a Claim and rechecking status
Claims need to be made at the school(s) your child(ren) attend, so if you have children at more than one school, please make sure that you apply for each child at their relevant school.
For both types of eligibility, we will need to recheck your claim(s) once per school year as children will only be eligible for the support explained above while their parents are in receipt of one of the qualifying benefits. If you find that your circumstances change over the course of the school year and you feel that your children’s eligibility needs to be re-checked, please let us know.
If your child moves to a new school over the course of the school year and they were eligible while attending this school, please let the new school know and they can contact us for details.
In order to apply for Free School Meals for your child(ren) for September you will need to complete the application form and bring it to the school office or for parents with No Recourse to Public Funds, please contact us for information about how to apply.
