Please read the information below which gives details of our Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) and how funding is allocated.
What is the PPG?
The Pupil Premium grant is a government-funded program that helps improve outcomes for disadvantaged pupils in state funded schools in England. You apply by registering for Free School Meals.
If you qualify, your child or children can receive free school meals and reduced costs towards some after school activities e.g. clubs, trips and visits. You can also request financial help with the cost of your child's school uniform.
In addition the funding allows us to provide an even better education for your child through the purchase of additional resources and training of staff to support learning.
Check this website for further information: Apply for Free School Meals
If you are in receipt of any of the following benefits then you can check your eligibility.
Your child may be able to get free school meals if you get any of the following:
Tell your local authority if you also get any of the qualifying benefits. Our school can get extra funding if you do.
This funding is a fantastic way for your child or children to receive extra support. If you have any queries, please contact office@farleyhill.wokingham.sch.uk. We are happy to support you through the application process and we will do so in the strictest confidence.
The following children are also eligible to receive PPG:
Farley Family Partner (FFP)
This year we will be introducing the new role of the Farley Family Partner as a way to support all our families. However, initially our FFP will focus on supporting our PPG families. Mrs Bailey, will be arranging coffee afternoons through the year for you to be able to come to school, meet other families socially and let us know how we can support you. Do you need help with accessing information from school? Do you need support in completing paperwork for school or other organisations? How can we help in supporting you and your children?
Dates for the coffee afternoons will be emailed to you - but in the meantime, if we can help, please contact Mrs Bailey via office@farleyhill.wokingham.sch.uk
