Frequently asked questions

 What is the Pupil Premium?

This is funding given to schools for every child who has free school meals. The government provides this funding because it believes there is a strong link between the financial background of families and their children’s achievement.

How does the school access the money?

School completes a census several times a year indicating how many children have free school meals. The funding is multiplied by the number of children.

How can I find out if my child is eligible for free school meals and the Pupil Premium?

Please ask at the office as we can answer your questions and help you apply for free school meals. Alternatively, you can go to LBHF Town Hall.

Can my child still benefit from the Pupil Premium even if they are on packed lunches?

If your family is eligible for free school meals but your child chooses to have packed lunches, the school will still receive the Pupil Premium funding.

Will my child lose the Pupil Premium funding if they stop having free school meals?

No, the school continues to receive the funding for 6 years. If your child moves onto secondary school in that time, the new  school would receive the continued funding. This is called EVER6 funding.

What is the Pupil Premium spent on?

Schools have the freedom to decide what the funding is spent on as different schools receive different amounts. The only criterion is that it impacts upon the achievement of those children and enables them to succeed in the same way as other children. Ofsted will check on the impact of the funding on the progress of these children.
