What is Pupil Premium Funding?

bhbmb

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, those looked after by the local authority and those now adopted but formerly looked after.  Since 2012, funding has been extended to include pupils who have been eligible for free school meals at any time within the last 6 years.

Nationally, statistics have shown that students who are in receipt of FSM do less well than their peers in external exams.  The aim of this money is to try to close that attainment gap.  All schools are required to publish what funding they have received and how the money is being spent.  Please refer below for details of how we spend the Pupil Premium at All Souls Primary School.

Use of Pupil Premium Funding

bhbnb

Pupil Premium funding comes directly into school.  It is based on the number of children registered as eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) at the moment, and in the past six years, together with the number of pupils who are either currently ‘looked after’ or formerly ‘looked after’ and now adopted.  It is not, in any way, assumed that all children eligible for the Pupil Premium are low-attaining or making poor progress. We consider how best to support the learning and access to all aspects of education for all categories of children, including those that are higher attaining in addition to those who have barriers to their learning.
