Introduced in 2011, the pupil premium is a sum of money given to schools each year by the Government to improve the attainment of disadvantaged children.
This is based on research showing that children from low-income families perform less well at school than their peers. Often, children who are entitled to pupil premium face challenges such as poor language and communication skills, lack of confidence and issues with attendance and punctuality. The pupil premium is intended to directly benefit the children who are eligible, helping to narrow the gap between them and their classmates.
“The pupil premium is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England. It’s designed to help disadvantaged students of all abilities perform better, and close the gap between them and their peers.”
Both the policy and the and pupil premium statement are in draft format however they outline the principals and the schools plan in closing the gap for the disadvantaged students who attend All Saints School.
