Pupil Premium & Sports Premium

At Woodlands, we are committed to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to achieve their full potential, regardless of their background. The Pupil Premium funding allows us to provide additional support, resources and opportunities to help reduce barriers to learning. In a similar way, the Sports Premium funding enables us to enhance the quality and breadth of our sporting provision in school, to provide opportunities for our pupils to enjoy active healthy lifestyles.

Pupil Premium

The pupil premium is additional funding given to publicly-funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils from Reception to Year 11 and close the gap between them and their peers. Pupil premium funding is available to both mainstream and non-mainstream schools, such as special schools and pupil referral units.
