The pupil premium is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils of all abilities and to close the gaps between them and their peers.  We track all children’s progress closely at Christ Church and ensure that they are reaching their full potential whatever their circumstances. It is for schools to decide how the Pupil Premium is spent, since they are best placed to assess what additional provision should be made for the  pupils within their responsibility.

Mrs Pendlebury, Deputy Headteacher, currently hold responsibility for pupil premium. Should you wish to discuss this, please email cpendlebury@christchurch.dgat.org.uk
