A personalised learning kit: Providing tailored support, whether it's one-on-one tutoring, after-school clubs, or specialist equipment, to help your child excel in areas they need it most.
Fuelling their passions: Funding for enriching activities like music lessons, sports equipment, or educational trips, broadening their horizons and nurturing their talents.

Pupil Premium Funding is not just about academics. It's about giving every child the opportunity to thrive, both inside and outside the classroom. It's about unleashing their potential and shaping a brighter future.
Applying is easy and confidential. Your child's eligibility is based on factors like household income, benefits received, or being in care. Check your school's website or contact their Pupil Premium coordinator to find out if your child qualifies.

The funding benefits all pupils, including your child, by creating a richer learning environment for everyone.
You're not alone. Many families rely on Pupil Premium Funding to support their children's success.
