Pupil premium

The pupil premium grant is designed to allow schools to help disadvantaged pupils by improving their progress and the exam results they achieve.

Our Pupil Premium Strategy Statement below shows how we utilise our Pupil Premium to close the learning gap for disadvantaged children.

covid 19 curriculum catch up funding

In June 2020, the government announced £1billion of funding to support children and young people to catch-up learning lost due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This funding includes a £650 million one off premium during the 2020 – 2021 academic year to support schools in identifying the children that have lost most during the school closure and put catch-up programmes in place to best support them.  The plan below shows how R A Butler will be utilising this funding.
