PUPIL & SPORT PREMIUM
PUPIL PREMIUM
Pupil Premium is government funds allocated to support children from low income families and those who have a parent in the Armed Services. Schools decide how this funding (allocated to schools for each Free School Meals (FSM) and Service Family pupil) is spent, as they are best placed to assess what additional provision should be made for the individual pupils at their school.

PE & SPORT PREMIUM
At St Alban’s, we provide a PE programme of games, gymnastics, dance and athletics in line with the National Curriculum. We also provide a programme of intensive swimming coaching. This enables each child to develop their movement, skill, balance and co-ordination as well as self confidence in the subject area.
The programme provides progression across the age range. Each child is given the opportunity to develop their competitive skills by engaging in festivals and competitions.
We offer an extra-curricular sports programme that provides the opportunity for children to further develop their knowledge, understanding and skills in a range of sporting areas.
