Special Educational Needs (SEN) Pupil Premium Grants

The Government introduced the Pupil Premium in 2011 to provide extra funding to children in receipt of Free School Meals. The Pupil Premium is additional funding given to schools so that they can support their disadvantaged pupils and close the attainment gap between them and their peers.

At Westwood we have decided to spend this money on increased support across the curriculum through additional Teaching Assistant hours - please click here for more information on Pupil Premium.
