Pupil Premium is an additional government grant which is added to the main funding that schools receive in their annual budgets.
Pupil Premium funding is allocated to:
- Pupils who are eligible for free school meals, or who have been eligible at some time in the past 6 years (FSM)
- Pupils whose parents are in the armed services (Service)
- Looked after children (LAC)
- Children who have been adopted from care (Post LAC)
The aim of Pupil Premium funding is to support eligible children who may be vulnerable to underachievement and to address any attainment gaps. As well as focusing on academic achievement, it may also be appropriate to provide support to nurture their well-being and to provide these children with access to a wide variety of enriching experiences.

In June 2020 the government announced £1 billion of funding to support children and young people to catch up on missed learning caused by coronavirus (COVID19). This is especially important for the most vulnerable pupils and pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds who we know have been most affected.
