Pupil Premium is funding given to schools to address inequalities and enable support to reach the pupils who need it most.
It is for schools to decide how the Pupil Premium is spent, since they are best placed to assess what additional provision should be made for the individual pupils within their responsibility.
As an inclusive school, Dalton St Mary’s C of E Primary School strongly believes that no pupil should be disadvantaged as a result of background and the consistent attainment and progress of our pupils over a number of years shows our commitment.
In 2023-24, £34,265 was allocated in Pupil Premium Funding. In Recovery Premium £3335 was allocated. Following advice from a maths SLE the school has moved across to using White Rose to support the teaching of maths. SERIS continues to be a great support for our children and high quality resources and personalised CPD is still of great importance.
In 2024-2025, £31,670 has been allocated in Pupil Premium Funding. Following detailed analysis we have recognised our children need further support with reading, focus and attention.
A detailed illustration of how we intend to utilise Pupil Premium allocation at Dalton St Mary’s 2024-2025 and how effective our approach was in 2023-24 can be found in the document below.
