Pupil Premium & Sports Funding

Pupil Premium

The pupil premium is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils of all abilities and to close the gaps between them and their peers.

The additional funding per pupil for 2020 to 2021 is as follows:

Pupils in year groups reception to year 6 as recorded as Ever 6 Free School Meals: £1,345

Looked after children (LAC) defined in Children Act 1989 as one who is in the care of, or provided with accommodation by, an English local authority: £2,345

Children who have ceased to be looked after by a local authority in England and Wales because of adoption, a special guardianship order, a child arrangements order or a residence order: £2,345

Holy Family Catholic Primary School receives the additional element of funding for 47 pupils which is 25% of the pupils on roll at this school. This allocation amounts to £65,560

This is a significant rise since last year due to hardships developed over the coronavirus pandemic.
