Pupil Premium
Central government gives funding for schools to support pupils from deprived backgrounds. This funding is called the 'Pupil Premium'. It is designed to close the gap in learning and achievement for those children from less advantaged backgrounds. At St Elizabeth, we are committed to ensuring excellence for all pupils. This year, our pupil premium is being used in the following ways:
- Numbers Count - supporting early mathematical skills acquisition
- Support for access to extra curricular activities
- Booster classes in English and Mathematics
- Musical instrument tuition

The talks are a mixture of teaching and moving stories which arouse and develop questions that can be discussed in small groups.
