Our goal: every child reaches their full potential at Jericho School. This includes social, moral, spiritual and culture growth. We believe every member of the school is able to achieve success and fulfillment. Our school improvement work is driven by high expectations and a belief that all children should make strong progress irrespective of gender, race, culture or socio-economic background. We therefore aim to use Pupil Premium to maximum effect.
Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011 and is allocated to pupils who are one of the following: Children Looked After, children who are currently eligible for Free School Meals, children who are within a service family, those children who have received Free School Meals in the last six years (Ever 6 children). Since April 2014, Pupil Premium Plus has come into effect whereby children adopted from care, or those children who have left care under Special Guardianship order since December 2005, also now receive funds.
The Pupil Premium provides funding for pupils:
Children with Special Educational Needs or a Disability, who are also pupil premium pupils, will therefore receive these funds, which will be used to maximise and benefit each child on an individual basis bespoke to meeting their needs.
Please note that our evaluations for the previous year are now within the current years plan.
