Pupil Premium Information
The Pupil Premium is allocated to schools with pupils on roll who are known to have been eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) at any time in the last six years. Schools have the freedom to spend the Pupil Premium in a way that they think best supports the raising of attainment for the most vulnerable pupils. Schools also receive Pupil Premium for pupils of parents serving in the Armed Forces.
Objectives in spending the Pupil Premium Grant at The Beacon are as follows:
- To close gaps in literacy and numeracy throughout the school.
- To raise literacy and numeracy levels with an emphasis on enabling Key Stage 2 students to achieve the nationally expected levels of progress or better.
- To provide additional intervention programmes which increase pupils access to the curriculum.
- To provide strategies which raise vulnerable pupils' confidence and self-belief, enabling them to become 'confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens'.
The allocated amount for the Pupil Premium Grant is currently £1385.00 per pupil. For children who are Looked After by the Local Authority or post-LAC, the grant is £2,410. For children of Service Families it is £320. Further information can be found on the Government's website here.
