Pupil Premium
Pupil Premium at Highfield School
The government provides additional funding to academies and schools, known as Pupil Premium, to help reduce inequalities and attainment gaps among students who receive free school meals or have done so in the past six years. This funding aims to support these students in achieving their full potential.
How Highfield School Uses the Pupil Premium
At Highfield, we believe that all students, regardless of their background, deserve the opportunity to succeed. We use the Pupil Premium funding to provide targeted support and additional resources to help students who are eligible for free school meals or have been in the past.
We produce an annual report on how our budget has been spent.
