What is Pupil Premium?
Pupil Premium is a government funded resource paid to schools to meet the needs of disadvantaged pupils. Any pupil who is eligible for Free School Meals now, or has been eligible in the previous 6 years, will receive funding. The funding is also provided to meet the needs of pupils in care to the Local Authority, pupils who have recently been adopted from care and pupils of Service families.
Ifield School’s Pupil Premium strategy sits at the heart of a whole school effort, with all staff understanding the strategy and their role. The Education Endowment Foundation’s (EEF) Guide to Pupil Premium (2019) has informed the expenditure of the Pupil Premium grant to maximise the benefit for the pupils at Ifield School.
Mr Paul Jackson, Deputy Director is our Pupil Premium Champion and supports initiatives to raise outcomes across the school.
