What is the Early Years Pupil Premium?

The early years pupil premium (EYPP) is additional funding for early years settings to improve the education they provide for disadvantaged 3 and 4 year olds. 

To determine whether or not children are eligible for this funding, we ask all families to complete an EYPP declaration form when their child starts Nursery at 3 years old and again during the term in which they turn 4 years old. 

The premium came into force in April 2015.  We are required to publish details of: 

* Our pupil premium allocation for the current academic year.

* Details of how we intend to spend our allocation.

* Details of how we spend our previous year's allocation (when applicable).

* The difference to the attainment of disadvantaged pupils the funding has made. 

We do not publish any information that could be used to identify individual pupils.
