Pupil Premium

What is Pupil Premium?

The pupil premium is additional government funding given to schools to help them tackle problems faced by socially disadvantaged children and to close the attainment gap between those children and their peers. Schools are free to use the pupil premium as they see fit but are accountable for how they have used the additional funding to support low income families.

How is Pupil Premium allocated?

The main basis of allocation is an amount paid in respect of each child known to have been eligible for free school meals at any time during the last six years. The principle behind this is that as a group, children eligible for free school meals have consistently lower educational attainment than those who have never been eligible for free school meals. In addition, amounts are paid for looked after children who have been in care for more than six months and for children whose parents are currently serving in the armed forces.

Pupil Premium Funding Statements:

Physical Education and Sports Premium

This funding - provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport - is allocated to primary school headteachers to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools.

This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on the provision of PE and sport in schools.
