Pupil Premium
Pupil Premium 2019/20
Pupil Premium is additional funding given to schools so that they can support their disadvantaged pupils and close the attainment gap between them and their peers. Schools attract £1,320 per disadvantaged child.
The government believes that the Pupil Premium, which is additional to main school funding, is the best way to address the current underlying inequalities between children eligible for free school meals (FSM) and their peers, by ensuring that funding to tackle disadvantage reaches the pupils who need it most.
The Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011 and is allocated to schools to work with pupils who have been registered for free school meals at any point in the last six years (known as ‘Ever 6 FSM’).
Schools also receive funding for children who are, or have been, looked after and for children of service personnel.
Schools have the freedom to spend the premium in the way they feel will best support the raising of attainment of the most vulnerable pupils. The aim is to support initiatives that ensure pupils reach their full potential, both academically and socially.
In 2019/20 Emmanuel Community School expects to receive £83,160 in Pupil Premium Funding.
Principles:
Demography isn’t destiny
- We need to ensure that every student achieves highly enough to have real options: to go to university or college or to follow the career path of their choice.
- We need to ensure that the teaching & learning meets the needs of all our pupils & that specific provision is made for pupils from vulnerable groups who are disadvantaged.
- We need to ensure that all children from identified vulnerable groups have the same access to opportunities offered as part of the school’s curriculum.
Provision will include:
- Providing small group work focused on overcoming gaps in learning.
- 1-1 support with teaching assistants.
- Additional teaching & learning opportunities provided by trained teaching assistants or external agencies.
- Equal access to wider opportunities which are offered within the school curriculum.
Reporting and Accountability:
The head teacher will report to the governing body on Pupil Premium spending. This will include progress made on narrowing the gap in attainment. The pupil premium strategy will be reviewed in the summer term.
