Funding for Adopting Parents

School Support Funding - Funding for children adopted from care

Pupil Premium  is to help schools raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap with their peers. The school receives funding in respect of disadvantaged pupils in Years 7 to 11. The Government has extended the coverage of the Pupil Premium in recognition of the traumatic experiences many adopted children have endured in their early lives and a realisation that their needs do not change overnight.

To enable our school to claim the Pupil Premium Plus, you will need to inform the school about your child and provide supporting evidence of the adoption. This will then trigger the payment of Pupil Premium Plus to the school.

Please e-mail r.saxby@springwoodhighschool.co.uk or telephone Mrs Rebecca Saxby on 01553 778098 if you would like further help or assistance. 

All declarations and information received will be treated in the strictest of confidence.
