Pupil Premium

Introduced in 2011, the pupil premium is a sum of money given to schools each year by the Government to improve the attainment of disadvantaged children.

Schools are given a pupil premium for:

  • Children who have qualified for free school meals at any point in the past six years.
  • Children who are or have been looked after under local authority care for more than one day.
  • Children from service families who receive a child pension from the Ministry of Defence.

1) Free School Meal from the Eligible for Free School Meals field in Section 6 – Dietary,  

2) Service Children in Education from Section 9 – Additional Information and

3) In Care Details from Section 10 – Welfare
