At Holy Trinity C of E Primary School, our Christian vision and values of Community, Aspiration, Resilience and Enjoyment, rooted in faith, guide everything we do to ensure every child thrives academically, socially and spiritually. We are committed to creating a nurturing and inclusive environment where every pupil is valued, encouraged and supported to develop confidence, resilience and a love of learning.

The Pupil Premium is additional funding provided by the Department for Education to schools to help narrow the attainment gap and improve outcomes for disadvantaged pupils. This funding is allocated for pupils who are currently eligible for free school meals, have been eligible in the past six years, or who have been looked after by the local authority for more than six months (including adopted children).  Pupil Premium funding is also known as Free School Meals.

At Holy Trinity C of E Primary School, we use this funding strategically to support disadvantaged pupils so that they can access the full breadth of our inclusive and enriching curriculum, make strong progress and fully participate in school life. Our approach to spending the Pupil Premium is firmly rooted in our values — ensuring every child has the confidence, resilience, aspiration and enjoyment they need to succeed, regardless of background.

We are accountable for how the funding is spent and regularly review its impact. As part of this accountability, we publish a Pupil Premium strategy and impact statement each year, showing how the funding contributes to raising achievement and reducing inequality. Ofsted also considers the effectiveness of Pupil Premium spending and its impact on pupils’ progress as part of their inspection criteria.
