The additional funding is allocated to schools to support Narrowing the Gap between vulnerable learners and their peers.
Principles of the Pupil Premium Funding:
We ensure that teaching and learning opportunities meet the needs of all of our pupils. We ensure that appropriate provision is made for pupils who belong to vulnerable groups, this includes ensuring that the needs of children who receive the pupil premium funding are adequately assessed and addressed. In making provision for pupils, we recognise that not all pupils who receive free school meals will be disadvantaged. We also recognise that not all pupils who are disadvantaged are registered or qualify for free school meals and they will, from time to time, be included in group interventions with children receiving the pupil premium grant. All our work through the pupil premium will be aimed at accelerating progress so that all children meet their expectations both academically and socially.
Reporting Pupil Premium It is the responsibility of the governors to explain pupil premium spending to parents in the form of an annual statement. The report aims to detail information on how Pupil Premium has been used within school and the progress towards narrowing the attainment gap.
