Premium Allocations

Pupil Premium

We have high aspirations for all the children in our school community and believe that all children should be given the opportunity to reach their full potential. We seek, as a school community, to provide personalised learning opportunities and targeted support to allow every child to flourish.

As we recognise that not all pupils who are academically or socially disadvantaged are registered for free school meals, we reserve the right to allocate Pupil Premium funding to support any pupil, or group of pupils, identified by the school as being at a significant disadvantage.

In order to meet the above requirements, the LAB will ensure that provision is made which secures the teaching and learning opportunities that meet the needs of all pupils. They will feed back to the Trust.

Our priorities at St. Mark’s C of E Primary School are:

  • To increase the number of disadvantaged pupils who will meet national expectations for attendance.
  • Ensure all children have the emotional resilience and readiness to learn that ensures academic achievement.
  • To increase and sustain parental involvement in their child’s learning.   
  • Improved % of disadvantaged pupils achieving national age-related expectations (including greater depth) at the end of all key stages. Gap between disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged pupils to have closed.
  • Pupils develop stamina and independence to achieve targets and are prepared for success in later life.

Sports Premium

This funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to primary schools to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children.

The sport funding can only be spent on sport and PE provision in schools.
