Pupil Premium Grant Expenditure 2018-2019
Pupil Premium is a government funding initiative to provide support to specific groups of children who are vulnerable to ensure they reach their full potential both academically and socially. The fund allocated to a school is based on the percentage of pupils who are receiving free school meals, have received free school meals in one of the previous 6 years (Ever 6) or are a child looked after (CLA), or a child from service personnel.
At Roundwood Primary the number of pupils in receipt of FSM is small, however, whilst this funding remains available we would urge all parents/carers who may be eligible for FSM (including those receiving Universal Free School Meals) to take up their entitlement.
For Foundation Stage and for Years 1 to 6 please visit www.hertsdirect.org/freeschoolmeals, or alternatively, the school meal page of our website (from the parent tab) for further details. If you require assistance with a FSM application please call the customer service centre on 0300 123 4048 (8am-8pm Monday to Friday, 9am-4pm Saturday), or the school office will be happy to help you.
