Pupil Premium and Sports Premium Information
Pupil Premium
Pupil Premium is an additional amount of money allocated to schools depending on: the number of pupils who are, or who have been, eligible to receive free school meals; the number of children who are, or who have been under the care of the local authority; and children who come from a service family.
At present a number of children qualify for this additional amount of money. Families are sometimes entitled to free school meals, but choose not to take this option. We encourage all families who are entitled to free school meals to register and maintain their free school meal eligibility so that the children still attract the pupil premium.
This money has enabled us to provide extra resources, and employ an additional teaching assistant to support these pupils and others with similar needs in accessing the curriculum.
Please see Pupil Premium documents for further details of how this money is spent.
Sports Premium
At Exton & Greetham CE Primary School we believe that physical activity, a healthy diet and emotional wellbeing are the key to a happy and healthy lifestyle. We have therefore looked to allocate our Sports Premium Funding to support these aims and create opportunities for all of our children.
Details of how this funding has been allocated and spent can be found below.
Year 6 Swimming Competency
Meeting national curriculum requirements for swimming and water safety
| Please complete all of the below: |
What percentage of your currentYear 6 cohort swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres? N.B. Even though your children may swim in another year please report on their attainment on leaving primary school. | 100% |
What percentage of your current Year 6 cohort use a range of strokes effectively [for example, front crawl, backstroke and breaststroke]? | 91% |
What percentage of your current Year 6 cohort perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations? | 91% |
Our cohorts are small and fluctuate from year to year in number. Each child in recent years has accounted for between 8% and 100%. From 2016-2022 75% of year 6 leavers have been able to complete the three swimming competencies listed above.
We take all of our children swimming from year 5-6 in order to develop swimming skills.
