Pupil Premium

The Pupil Premium is allocated to children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) in both mainstream and non-mainstream settings and children who have been looked after by the local authority continuously for more than six months. It also includes pupils eligible for FSM at any point in the last six years (known as the Ever 6 FSM measure). The children of serving service personnel are also entitled to some additional funding.

At St Laurence Church Infant School our prime aim is to narrow any gaps in attainment for pupils entitled to Pupil Premium support, to provided them with any additional support they require to fully access the curriculum and also enable those pupils to have access to all school activities.

We are also able to include pupils who are not entitled to FSM but have a clear need to additional support for a variety of reasons.
