Pupil Premium
At Tidbury Green, we believe every child should feel a strong sense of belonging and have the support they need to achieve their very best. The Pupil Premium is additional government funding that helps us do exactly that. It is provided to help schools raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and to ensure that all children can thrive, no matter their circumstances.
This funding is allocated to pupils who:
-
Are currently eligible for Free School Meals (FSM)
-
Have been eligible for FSM at any point in the last six years (Ever 6)
-
Are Looked After Children or children who have been adopted from care
-
Have parents serving in the Armed Forces
Both mainstream and specialist settings, including special schools and PRUs, receive this funding, ensuring support reaches children across different types of provision.
If you believe your child may be eligible but are unsure whether school holds this information, please speak confidentially with Mrs Smith in the school office. Checking eligibility is quick, simple and completely private - and accessing this funding can open the door to valuable additional support.
At Tidbury Green, we use our Pupil Premium funding thoughtfully and strategically, drawing on the best evidence and research to make sure our decisions lead to real impact for our children. You can read more about how we use this funding in our latest Pupil Premium Strategy, available below.
