NeneGate Pupil Premium and Meridian Trust PP Charter
Pupil Premium
NeneGate School Pupil Premium 2024 - 2027
The Government believes that Pupil Premium (PP) funding, which is additional to main school funding, is the best way to address the underlying inequalities between children who are eligible for free school meals (FSM), or who have been eligible in the last 6 years, and their peers.
The use of the term ‘Pupil Premium’ refers to those pupils who attract government pupil premium funding: pupils claiming free school meals at any point in the last six years and pupils in care or who left care through adoption or another formal route.
Schools also receive funding for children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months and for those pupils who are the children of either currently serving member of HM forces, or who have retired on a pension from the Ministry of Defence. This ‘Service Premium ’ is not classed as Pupil Premium but is allocated to help with pastoral support.
The Pupil Premium (PP) and Service Premium currently stands at:
The PP funding is used to help fund a range of educational benefits for pupils across the school such as targeted small group interventions, additional pastoral support, or inclusion in school activities such as extra-curricular clubs, school trips and music lessons.
It is a requirement for the academic year 2024/25 that the school publishes both how the money was spent in 2023/24 and how it is going to be spent in the coming year 2024/25.
There are a number of activities outlined in ‘The strategy document’ which have been taken from the ‘Meridian Trust Pupil Premium Charter’.
This Charter closely follows the principles outlined in the Meridian-Trust-Pupil-Premium-Statement-of-Principles-v.6-Nov-24.pdf
The Charter focuses on closing the gap in attainment, attendance, parental engagement, CEIAG (Careers, Information, Advice and Guidance) and pupil experiences.
There is much evidence to suggest that those in receipt of Pupil Premium funding do not always experience a rich set of activities and opportunities which broaden their outlook and perspective. Therefore, a significant strand of the Charter focuses on giving pupils a set of experiences and memories they will never forget. We encourage all pupils, but especially those in receipt of Pupil Premium Funding, to Extend the Boundaries of Learning and take part in school trips, visits and to live a broad range of childhood experiences offered in Meridian Trust schools.
The impact of activities outlined in the Charter and in the strategy document below, are reviewed throughout the academic year both internally by the school, as well as through quality assurance visits coordinated by the Trust.
