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 have been looked after continuously for more than six months, and children of service personnel.

More information on the Pupil Premium can be found here.

Below are details on how we at Abbot’s Lea School have spent the premium funding in previous years and the impact it has had on learning.
