Pupil Premium funding is allocated to children who are eligible for Targeted Free School Meals, Service Children and those children who have been Looked After in Care. This also includes pupils who were eligible previously and are now recognised as Ever 6 pupils with protected pupil premium funding for 6 years. 

Since September 2012, we have been required to publish online information about how we have used the Premium. This ensures that parents and others are made fully aware of the attainment of pupils covered by the Premium and the extra support that they receive.

It is for schools to decide how the Pupil Premium is spent, as they are best placed to assess what additional provision should be made for the individual pupils at their school. We have adopted a tiered approach for the allocation of funding. The strategy outlines our plans for spending in the following tiers:

• Teaching
• Targeted Support
• Wider Strategies

The Pupil Premium Strategy details the spending and impact of each strand and it's impact for both last year and the year ahead at Biscovey Nursery and Infants' Academy. 

Mrs Sanders is our Pupil Premium Lead. She is here to help with any queries regarding Pupil Premium and is available by appointment.
