Funding
Pupil Premium Funding
The Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011 and paid by a means of a specific grant based on school census figures for students who have been registered for free school meals at any point in the last six years (known as Ever 6 FSM). For looked after children, the Pupil Premium was calculated using the Children Looked After data return.
A premium has also been introduced for children whose parents are currently serving in the armed forces. This service premium is designed to address the emotional and social well-being of these students.
The Pupil Premium is additional to main school funding and will be used by Rusthall St Paul's CE Primary School to address any underlying inequalities between children eligible by ensuring that funding reaches the students who need it most to support and improve their learning.
Objectives
Pupil Premium will be used to provide additional educational support to improve the progress and to raise the standard of achievement for these students. The funding will be used to narrow and close the gap between the achievement of these students and their peers. As far as its powers allow, Rusthall St Paul's CE Primary School will use the additional funding to maximise achievement for children eligible for Pupil Premium. We will also look to support Pupil Premium children’s participation, where appropriate, in extra curricular activities.
We will monitor this additional funding to make sure it reaches the students who need it most and that it makes a significant impact on their education and lives. Reports will be presented at the appropriate school leadership meetings and an annual report made available to parents on the school’s website. Our strategy documents can be found below, which outlines our plan for the year, including how we have allocated the funding and the impact.
