Pupil Premium Expenditure
Invicta Grammar School Pupil Premium Funding
The Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) is a government grant that is given to schools to help them support those children that are the most disadvantaged, with a focus on raising attainment.
In the 2023-24 financial year, all schools will receive the following funding for each child registered as eligible for free school meals at any point in the last 6 years:
- £1,035 for secondary-aged pupils.
Schools will receive £2,530 for any pupil:
- identified in the January 2022 school census or the alternative provision census as having left local authority care as a result of:
- adoption;
- a special guardianship order;
- a child arrangements order (previously known as a residence order).
- who has been in local authority care for 1 day or more;
- recorded as both eligible for FSM in the last 6 years and as being looked after (or as having left local authority care).
For pupils who attract the £2,530 rate, the virtual school head of the local authority that looks after the pupil will manage the funding.
Schools will receive £335 for every pupil in Year Groups Reception to Year 11 where:
- one of their parents is serving in the regular armed forces (including pupils with a parent who is on full commitment as part of the full-time reserve service, and also pupils whose parent is serving in the armed forces of another nation and is formally stationed in England) – and they are recorded in the October school census as being a ‘service child’.
- they have previously been registered as a ‘service child’ in any school census in the last 6 years.
- one of their parents died while serving in the armed forces, and the pupil receives a pension under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme or the War Pensions Scheme.
(This funding is primarily to help with pastoral support. It can also be used to help improve the academic progress of eligible pupils if the school deems this to be a priority.)
