Pupil Premium

The Pupil Premium Grant is additional funding provided by the government to schools in England to improve the educational outcomes of disadvantaged students aged 5 to 16. The grant is aimed at supporting these students and addressing the achievement gap between them and their peers. It is used by schools to provide targeted interventions, resources, and support to help disadvantaged students reach their full potential.

At Waterside Academy, we are committed to using the Pupil Premium Grant effectively to ensure every student receives the support they need to succeed academically and thrive in their education.  If you would like to read more about how we spend the money please download our Pupil Premium Strategy Plan below.
