Pupil Premium Spending – 2021-22

We have 8 children eligible for Pupil Premium Funding, out of the school total of 154 pupils.

 This means that 5.2% of the school are eligible for this funding of £1345 per child per year.

The current funding for 2021-22 is £8070 but may increase from January 2022.

Schools are given a pupil premium for:

• Children who have qualified for free school meals at any point in the past six years.
• Children who are or have been looked after under local authority care for more than one day.
• Children from service families who receive a child pension from the Ministry of Defence.
