Pupil Premium

The school receives funds for disadvantaged pupils through the Pupil Premium Grant.

Pupils entitled to Free School Meals, Looked After children, post adoptive children and those of Service families are all entitled to benefit from the provision of this funding.

We have a dedicated Pupil Premium, Inclusion and Designated Teacher, Miss Charlotte Kruger. 

We are proud to spend this funding carefully and proportionally at Newcroft, to improve outcomes for our Pupil Premium children and their families. Our ultimate aim is to use this funding to close barriers to learning for these children. 

This is just some of the provision we have on offer at our school:

• 1:1 personalised individual support and small group work during the school day

• 1:1 personalsied sessions after school

• Additional phonics and speech and language sessions

• Lego Therapy

• ELSA (Emotional Learning Support Assistant) counseling and 1:1 therapy

• A Family Support Worker to support children with social and emotional issues

• Support of an Attendance and Inclusion specialist worker to improve attendance through working with familles

• Wider Opportunities for Music, enabling pupils to play a range of instruments 

• Sports activities at break and lunchtime 

• Judo Lessons and other martial arts lessons

• Wrap around care- Breakfast/Afterschool club fees

• Funded School Uniform and PE Kit 

• Trips and visits – we fund up to 50% for our Pupil Premium children wishing to go on residential trips and visits
