The pupil premium is additional funding given to schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers. (Dfe website)
This funding is used to support the attainment and progress of children who are entitled to free school meals.
Each year schools must report how they have used this funding and what the impact has been.
