What is the Pupil Premium?

Pupil Premium is additional funding given to schools to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers. It was first introduced in April 2011. Since then the amount schools receive has increased. Schools receive funding based on the number of pupils who have been eligible for free school meals at any point in the last 6 years.

Key principles for using pupil premium at Khalsa Primary: 

  1. We are committed to raising achievement for pupils who are eligible for Pupil Premium. We are fully aware that these pupils must make faster progress than non-eligible pupils.
  2. We strive to ‘bring out the best’ in this group of pupils and support them to achieve the highest levels.
  3. We create a package of support to tackle the range of barriers including; attendance, behaviour, improving the quality of teaching and learning, language acquisition, parental engagement, practical activities and development of literacy and numeracy skills.
  4. We use assessment systems to identify, track and closely monitor pupils who are under achieving.
  5. We use intervention support to accelerate progress of eligible pupils and close the attainment gap compared to their peers.
  6. The SLT have a clear overview of how funding is allocated and the difference it is making to the outcomes of pupils termly.
  7. We ensure teachers and subject leaders know which pupils are eligible for Pupil Premium so they can take responsibility for accelerating progress and accountability is shared across the school.
  8. Our Governing Board is ambitious for pupils and closely monitors the school’s effectiveness in closing the gap between different groups of pupils.
