Pupil Premium

At Litcham School, we are committed to ensuring that all students, regardless of their background or the challenges they may face, experience success, happiness, and opportunity. The focus of our Pupil Premium strategy is to support disadvantaged and other vulnerable students in achieving these goals.

We carefully consider the unique challenges faced by our students and ensure that the support we provide is clearly defined and tailored to their individual needs.

What is the Pupil Premium Grant?

The Pupil Premium Grant is funding provided to improve educational outcomes for disadvantaged pupils in state-funded schools in England. Students eligible for Pupil Premium
include:

• Pupils recorded as eligible for free school meals (FSM) now or at any time in the last six years, including children from families with no recourse to public funds (NRPF).
• Children looked after by local authorities (referred to as looked-after children).
• Children who were previously looked after by a local authority or in other state care (referred to as previously looked-after children).

The Pupil Premium Grant is not a personal budget for individual students, and schools are not required to spend the allocated funds solely on eligible students.

Additionally, Service Pupil Premium is funding provided for schools with pupils who have parents serving in the armed forces.
