The Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) at Greasley Beauvale Primary School, for the academic year from September 2020, is £86,867.

What is the Pupil Premium Grant?

Introduced in 2011, the Pupil Premium Grant is a sum of money given to schools each year by the Government to improve the attainment of children.

This is based on research showing that children from low income families perform less well at school than their peers. Often, but not always, children who are entitled to Pupil Premium face challenges such as poor language and communication skills, less family support, lack of confidence and issues with attendance and punctuality. The Pupil Premium Grant is intended to directly benefit the children who are eligible, helping to diminish the difference between them and their classmates.

Children who are eligible for means tested Free School Meals are also eligible for the Pupil Premium Grant. 

How can I ensure the school gets the funding for my child?

The more eligible pupils that are registered the more funding the school receives. Registering does not mean that your child has to have school dinners.

You should still register for even if:

• Your child already receives free school meals (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2)
• You would rather your child had a different meal, such as a packed lunch
