Pupil premium

Is your child entitled to extra support with their learning?

In addition to receiving a free school lunch, if your joint family income is less than £16,190 per year and you are in receipt of benefits your child may have access to extra funding.

Why register?

Registering for free school meals and pupil premium could raise an extra £1,320 for your child’s school to fund valuable support like:

Support with their learning
After school activities
School visits
Subsidized breakfast club sessions

This additional money is available from central government for every child whose parent is receiving eligible benefits. It is therefore important to sign up for free school meals/pupil premium as this involves more than a free school lunch and your child’s school will receive extra funding to ensure your child gets support.

What is the Pupil Premium Grant?

The pupil premium grant is additional funding given to publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers; and to support children and young people with parents in the regular armed forces.
