Pupil Premium
At Henry Chadwick we know that all children have the right to the best education and therefore we target the use of Pupil Premium Grant funding to ensure that our disadvantaged pupils receive the highest quality of education and experiences so that they can ‘Learn to Live’.
- Targeted Free School Meals (TFSM): Applies to families receiving Universal Credit with an annual household income of £7,400 or less. Children in this group receive free school meals and make the school eligible for the Pupil Premium grant (and the Ever 6 FSM cohort).
- Expanded Free School Meals (EFSM): Applies to all other families receiving Universal Credit with earnings above £7,400. Children qualify for free school meals only, but do not attract Pupil Premium funding or deprivation funding for the school.
- Primary-aged pupil (Ever 6 FSM): £1,550 per year
- Secondary-aged pupil (Ever 6 FSM): £1,100 per year
- Previously looked-after children: £2,690 per year (primary and secondary)
- Service pupil premium: £360 per eligible pupil [1]
- Check category status: Ensure the school records your details accurately under the targeted threshold if your income is below £7,400, to guarantee your child and school receive full access to entitled educational supports
Free School Meals
School meals are a good way to ensure that your child eats well at lunchtime, and you can save yourself time and money.
Even if you don’t want your children to have the meals, claiming Free School Meals helps our school. The more eligible parents who claim Free School Meals, the more funding the school receives. If a child is in receipt of targeted Free School Meals we can also support with the cost of additional provision such as educational trips.
Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM) for Reception, Year 1 and 2 children
Universal Free School Meals (UIFSM) provide government-funded free school lunches to all pupils in reception, year 1 and year 2 in state-funded schools across England, regardless of household income.
