Early Years Pupil Premium (EYPP)
The academy receives additional funding for children whose parents are in receipt of certain benefits. We request parents/carers whether currently working or not should still register for this additional funding for the academy, even if you don’t think you are currently eligible. The form is located at the bottom of this page. Once an application has been made to Newham, we will receive a notification with the outcome and the academy will receive additional funding if you are entitled.
How do we use the additional funding?
We use the additional Early Years Pupil Premium funding in a variety of ways including:
• 1x £50 uniform voucher per child for the academic year
• Discounts on academy trips
• Supports the work of the school counsellor and wellbeing room
• Supports the work of the Educational Welfare Officer
• Allows us to run after school intervention clubs
