The DfE allocates Pupil Premium funding to schools to support disadvantaged pupils to reach their full potential. This includes providing interventions to close gaps in learning and improve progress, providing extra opportunities to challenge and nurture support which allows pupils to be ready to learn when they are in school. At Portland we provide additional staff, breakfasts and create bespoke timetables for pupils. To read more about how the Pupil Premium funding is used at Portland, read the full report below.
