Pupil Premium is allocated to schools of statutory school age from low income families who are eligible for Free School Meals (FSM), for children who are looked after by the Local authority (LAC) and to children whose parents are currently serving in the Armed Forces. Schools are able to spend the pupil premium as they see necessary to support the children who are in receipt of it. However, for accountability purposes, schools are required to show clearly how and where the money is spent.
Across the Holy Cross Federation, cohort sizes can be very small. As a result, numbers of children receiving support from the various projects are not commented on, in order to preserve anonymity and confidentiality.
At Wormegay CE Primary, the expected Pupil Premium grant for 2020/21 is £10,560.
