Pupil Premium Grant Funding (Expenditure and Impact)

Purpose

The Pupil Premium Grant, introduced in 2011, is funding to improve educational outcomes for disadvantaged children in state-funded schools in England. 

Pupil premium is not a personal budget for individual pupils and schools do not have to spend pupil premium so that it solely benefits pupils who meet the funding criteria. Pupil premium can be used to support other pupils with identified needs, or used for whole class interventions that will benefit all pupils.

Matching Green C of E Primary School

Matching Green C of E Primary School is a vertically grouped Church of England School where our pupils learn within a Christian environment, developing an understanding of the values and teachings of the church, as well as a knowledge and respect for all religions, faiths and cultures. The school is also a member of the Epping Forest Rural Local Delivery Group. Working closely with parents, governors and the wider community, we provide a caring and happy environment where every child matters and where all children will be nurtured and guided to develop a thirst for learning. Our school is an inclusive school and offers to meet the needs of all pupils and their families. We have a shared expectation that all pupils, regardless of their background, religion or Special Educational Need, will be given inclusive, quality teaching. This will ensure that our pupils are high achievers, confident learners and feel that they are a valued member of our school community. Fundamentally, we are a totally unique family centred, Christian community where every individual is valued and their successes celebrated.
