‘Pupil Premium’ funding, now called ‘disadvantage funding’, is allocated to schools from central government for the specific purpose of raising attainment among an identified group of children and closing the gap between them and their peers.

It is calculated based on the number of pupils who have registered for free school meals at any point in the last 6 years, children whose parents are serving in the armed forces and those who have left local authority care under adoption, special guardianship or residence orders.

As a school we can decide how our funding is spent in order to benefit our children. However, we will be held to account on how we have used this funding and the impact that it has had.

At Carr Hill, we have high aspirations and ambitions for all our children and we believe that no child should struggle to reach their academic potential. We ensure, using various strategies, that our children are given every chance to realise this. We believe that one of the biggest barriers for children can be ‘poverty of expectation’ and so we are determined to create an ethos and climate that does not limit a child’s potential in any way. We believe there is no ‘one size fits all’ answer so it is essential that we identify individual barriers in order to provide personalised targeted support to enable our children to flourish.

This funding represents a significant proportion of our budget and we are committed to ensuring it is spent efficiently and to its maximum effect.

We use this money to provide our children with additional support, resources, experiences and opportunities. Our key objective is to narrow the gap between pupil groups and keep that gap closed. As a school, we have an excellent track record of ensuring that pupils make good progress. Through targeted interventions we are working to eliminate barriers to learning and progress that affect some groups of pupils. Many of our children start school with extremely low attainment on entry and our aim is to ensure that they make accelerated progress in order to reach age related and above expectations as they move through the school.

The Sutton Trust summarises research evidence on improving learning and we have used this to make more informed choices about which interventions will be most effective. We provide interventions that predominantly focus on improving feedback, developing metacognition and self-regulation and increasing parental engagement. We share best practice and provide targeted support and intervention for pupils. We focus on earlier intervention, increasing support programmes on offer as we aim to increase the number of Pupil Premium children making more than the expected levels progress.

In March 2013 the government announced that it would provide additional funding to improve provision of physical education and sport in primary schools in England – The Primary PE and Sport Premium.

The premium must be used to fund additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and sport, for the benefit of primary-aged pupils to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles.

The Department for Education (DfE) has published information on how much PE and sport premium funding primary schools receive, and advice on how to spend it.

This funding is allocated to primary school headteachers and is ring-fenced so can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools.
