Pupil Premium
The Pupil Premium was introduced in 2011 and is allocated to schools to work with pupils who have been registered for Free School Meals (FSM) at any point in the last 6 years (known as Ever 6 FSM). The Government believes that the Pupil Premium is the best way to address the underlying inequalities between children eligible for FSM and thier peers by ensuring that funding to tackle disadvantage reaches the pupils who need it most.
At Ernest Bevin College the Pupil Premium is used in many ways including:
- to support literacy by funding the position of a literacy coordinator;
- to pay for one to one tuition for targetted pupils
- to subsize the funding costs of the Learning Resource Centre
- to subsize the funding of additional teachers & Learning Support Assistants working with Foundation groups
- to run a summer school programme for students before they join the college in Year 7
- to fund music lessons
- to fund the Outdoor Adventure Activities (OAA) programme
- to fund an Outward Bound trip to encourage team work & problem solving in a challenging outdoor environment
