Pupil Premium

The Pupil Premium is government funding provided to schools in England to support students who are at a greater risk of underachievement due to their personal circumstances.

Schools receive this additional funding for children who meet certain criteria, including:

• Children eligible for free school meals (FSM): This applies to students who have been eligible for free school meals at any point in the last six years.
• Looked After Children (LAC): Children who are or have been in local authority care.
• Previously Looked After Children (PLAC): Children who have been adopted from care or left care under a special guardianship order.
• Children of service personnel: Funding is also allocated to support children whose parents are currently serving in the armed forces.

If you think that your child may be eligible, you can find out more, and apply at: North Northamptonshire Free School Meals and Pupil Premium, or speak to the school office.

Please read our Pupil Premium Strategy below to understand how we plan to use the Pupil Premium to support children's progress and achievement.
