Pupil Premium Funding 2020-21

The government provides additional funding to all Local Authority schools to support and accelerate the learning of pupils that receive free school dinners; this is call the Pupil Premium funding. Pupil Premium funding must be used in school to raise attainment of disadvantaged pupils and to close the gap between them and their peers.
At New Mills Primary School we spend all of this funding on additional teaching and teaching assistant staff to ensure that all children make the very best progress in English and Maths as possible. The class teachers work closely with their additional colleagues to develop support packages in English and Maths for children working individually with the teachers (1:1) or for activities that they lead in small groups.

The Pupil Premium grant for 2020-21 is £54450.
