1 Kea Community Primary School Pupil Premium Grant Report Autumn 2016 The Pupil Premium is a source of funding made available to schools by the Government. This is targeted funding to be used to provide opportunities for disadvantaged pupils. The national trend is that pupils who are eligible for free school meals have lower achievement than those who are not eligible. The Pupil Premium grant is to be used to help narrow this gap. At Kea School, we believe that all pupils should be supported to achieve their potential. We are committed to using the resources made available to us to help achieve the best outcomes for all learners.
