The Pupil Premium Grant is allocated to children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM), in both mainstream and non-mainstream settings and children who have been in care or “looked after” continuously for more than six months. Pupil Premium also includes pupils eligible for FSM at any point in the last six years (known as the Ever 6 FSM measure).

Schools are held accountable for how the additional funding has been used to support pupils from low-income families. The documents below detail how the money has been spent to support the attainment of pupils covered by Pupil Premium funding.
