Scholar Advocates
We are very careful about how we talk about Pupil Premium funding in school. We are as discreet and sensitive as possible with children so they do not feel different from their peers. In fact, we call these students our Scholars, when we are describing them as a group. We know each one is individual, with unique gifts and talents and hopes and dreams.
If you want to discuss any aspect of Pupil Premium funding and how we support your child, please contact the relevant Scholar Advocate. Scholar Advocates keep a particular eye out for the children in their year group.
