Pupil, Sports and Catch up Premium
The Pupil Premium Grant
The Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) is funding provided to schools which is additional to main school funding. It is allocated according to the number of pupils on roll who are eligible for free school meals (FSM), a smaller amount allocated according to the number of children of service families and an allocation for each pupil who has been ‘Looked After’ (in care) for 6 months or more. In 2013, funding was extended to include pupils who have been eligible for free school meals within the past 6 years (EV6). Pupil Premium Plus is paid for pupils who were previously Looked After. It is up to schools to decide how the Pupil Premium is spent, since they are best placed to assess what their pupils need in terms of additional provision. However, schools are accountable for the Pupil Premium and details of how the money is spent must be published on the school’s website.
3-year long-term pupil premium strategy
The Pupil Premium Strategy is based on the long-term approach to pupil premium planning recommended by the DfE and the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF). It will be reviewed and updated at least once per year.

Sports Premium Funding
At the beginning of September 2013, the Government allocated each school an amount of money to be spent on increasing the quality & breadth of PE & Sport provision, and increasing participation in PE & Sport. The amount of Sports Premium funding each school receives is determined by the number of children of primary age within the school.
This document outlines the spending and impact of the Sports Premium Funding during the academic year 2020-2021.
Catch-Up Premium
Free School Meals
If you believe your child/ren should qualify for Free School Meals you should complete the application form on the Leeds City Council website, see link below. This also applies to parents of children in Years Reception to Year 2 as, even though the Government provides Universal Free School Meals to these children, the benefit based Free School Meal eligibility remains with the child throughout their time at Primary School.
