The Pupil Premium is funding which all schools receive for any student who is currently, or has been at any point over the past 6 years, in receipt of free school meals.

The grant may be spent in the following ways:

• for the purposes of the school i.e. for the educational benefit of pupils registered at that school
• for the benefit of pupils registered at other maintained schools or academies
• on community facilities eg services whose provision furthers any charitable purpose for the benefit of pupils at the school or their families, or people who live or work in the locality in which the school is situated

How is the Pupil Premium Grant spent?

Some students may already be doing well in their subjects, but there may be things we can do to stretch them further, or to help them aim higher and build their confidence.  Planned activities such as university visits, aspirational workshops or enrichment days have been put in place to develop social and team building skills. Some students may need financial help so that they can take part in activities and trips.
