Pupil Premium
PUPIL PREMIUM 2021/2022
The Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) is an allocation of funding provided to school to support children who may be vulnerable to underachievement.
A child may be eligible to receive Pupil Premium if their parents receive one or more of the following benefits:
Universal credit (provided you have a net income of £7400 or less)
- Income support
- Income-based jobseekers’ allowance
- Income-related employment and support allowance
- Support under Part IV of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
- The guaranteed element of state pension credit
- Child tax credit, provided that you are not also entitled to working tax credit and have an annual gross income of £16,190 or less
These are examples of how the funding can be spent:
extra one-to-one or small-group support for children within the classroom.
- Employing extra teaching assistants to work with classes.
- Running catch-up sessions before or after school, for example for children who need extra help with maths or literacy.
- Running a school breakfast club to improve attendance.
- Providing extra tuition for able children.
- Providing music lessons for children whose families would be unable to pay for them.
- Funding educational trips and visits.
- Paying for additional help such as speech and language therapy or family therapy.
- Funding English classes for children who speak another language at home.
- Investing in resources that boost children’s learning, such as laptops or tablets.
In 2021/22 we have nine children eligible to receive PPG and we will receive a total of £13,871.00. This includes £2410.00 from Virtual Schools.
We do not anticipate that the allocation per child will change in 2022/23.
Full details of how we spend our Pupil premium funding are in our Pupil Premium Strategy 2021/2022 to 2023/2024.
