The Pupil Premium is funding to support the achievement and progress of children from low-income families who were known to be eligible for free school meals, and children who had been looked after continuously for more than six months. This funding has been allocated to every school as national figures commonly show that these groups of students do not achieve as well as their peers.
At Christchurch Junior School in 2018-19 we have 58 children on roll who qualify for pupil premium funding. (11.5% of all pupils).
