The Pupil Premium Grant is additional funding provided to schools to support the achievement and wellbeing of disadvantaged pupils. Schools receive this funding for students who are eligible for Targeted Free School Meals, have been previously looked after, or are from service families.

At Beverley High School, Pupil Premium funding is used to provide a tiered model of support, focusing on:

• High-quality teaching for all students.
• Targeted academic support where additional help is needed.
• Wider strategies that remove barriers to learning and promote wellbeing.

Our approach is informed by evidence-based research, including guidance from the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), and is planned and reviewed by the Senior Leadership Team, Pupil Premium Lead and Pastoral Team.

We recognise that disadvantage can affect pupils in different ways. Not all pupils who receive Free School Meals face the same challenges, and not all disadvantaged pupils are eligible for Free School Meals. For this reason, support is carefully targeted according to individual need.

Our aim is to ensure that all Pupil Premium students have the opportunity to achieve their full potential and access the same opportunities as their peers. Funding may be allocated to whole-school initiatives, specific groups of students, or individual interventions, depending on identified needs and priorities.

While not every eligible student will receive a specific intervention at any given time, the progress, attainment and wellbeing of all Pupil Premium students is regularly monitored and reviewed to ensure appropriate support is in place.
