What is our vision for Pupil Premium Spend?
The key objective for us when planning the pupil premium spend is to narrow any gaps there may be between pupil groups. The spend provides pupils with access to take the advantage of opportunities, responsibilities and experiences for later life. In this way, it can powerfully address social disadvantage and build cultural capital.
Our pupil premium spend plan holds the highest aspirations for all in line with our vision of Believe, Belong, Achieve. The spend encompasses emotional/social wellbeing alongside academic support.
Many of our children start with low attainment on entry; however we work tirelessly to identify this and ensure through carefully targeted use of the pupil premium funding we work to eliminate barriers to learning and ensure expected and exceeding progress for all.
We are held to account as are our governing body for reporting our pupil premium spend and its impact.

"Learning away...provides pupils with opportunities to learn the curriculum in a range of locations... This well planned approach helps to develop pupils' cultural capital".
