The Pupil Premium Grant is an additional funding provision by the Department for Education to support students who are in receipt of or have received free school meals in the past six years. It is intended to help alleviate some of the disadvantages that may be a consequence of wider social inequalities.
At King Solomon High School, our Pupil Premium Plan Strategy aims to
- Improve teaching and learning across the school so that adaptive teaching becomes the norm at KSHS, ensuring that the needs of all learners, including disadvantaged students, are met.
- Improve progress and attainment and close the progress and attainment gaps that exist between dis-advantaged learners and their peers.
- Support our disadvantaged learners to fully engage with their education by improving attendance, punctuality, and behaviour.
- Widen the opportunities available to disadvantaged learners so that they are able to fully participate in a range of extra-curricular activities that will help to develop their cultural capital.
- Support the mental health and well-being of all our young people, including our disadvantaged students.
