Pupil Premium
The Pupil Premium: Using it to make a difference at Windmill CE Primary School
What is the Pupil Premium?
The Pupil Premium is additional funding to help schools close the attainment gap between children from low-income and other disadvantaged families and their peers. If a child is eligible for free school meals (FSM) at any point over the past 6 years or has been looked after for one day or more (Child Looked After) the school receives an amount per head within their budget.
A provision is also made for children who have a parent in the armed services
Windmill CE Primary School is committed to ensuring maximum progress for all groups of children and strives to close any gaps in achievement.
Windmill CE Primary School actively promotes equality of opportunity for all staff, governors, pupils and parents, creating a harmonious learning community where all can succeed.
We have a clear, strategic approach to the use of specific Pupil Premium funding and plans are integrated into wider school support and improvement systems. These are monitored and evaluated regularly and in depth data analysis ensures that the correct support and strategies are identified to maximise progress.
Strong leadership systems ensure that Pupil Premium funding has the necessary impact. This includes an identified governor having responsibility for Pupil Premium, the Deputy Head Teacher (DHT) and Assistant Head Teachers (AHTs) leading the development plan and a coordinated senior leadership approach to implementing plans. All matters relating to the Pupil Premium are reported back to the Governors Standards and Effectiveness sub-committee, ensuring that the school is held to account for the impact of spending.
