  What is Pupil Premium?

TheP Pupil Premium is a grant from the government to help disadvantaged young people do well at school.  The funding is allocated to       schools for children from Reception to Year 11 who have registered for free school meals in the last six years, are in care or have  parents in the Armed Forces.
