Pupil Premium and Catch up Funding

At Peacehaven Community School we believe that all students should ‘Aspire, Believe and Achieve’ and that inequality should not be a barrier to how students view their potential. The pupil premium will be used to either meet these values, improve achievement, develop aspiration or provide support for those students who do not believe in their potential.

Pupil Premium Strategy and Review 2019-20

Catch Up Funding Strategy and Review 2019-20

Due to the closure of schools on 23rd March 2020 because of Covid-19, implementation of the Pupil Premium Strategy 2019-20 was suspended. Peacehaven Community School directed its resources towards supporting eligible pupils to maintain their continuity of learning.

As no KS2 data will be available to benchmark standards for Year 7 pupils on entry in September 2020, the school is taking steps to ensure that meaningful data is generated during Term 1 to identify disadvantaged pupils who need additional support, so that reliable progress targets can be set. The same process is in place for other year groups. For this reason the school will publish its Pupil Premium Strategy for 2020-21 by the end of Term 2.
