Dear Parents/Carers & Guardians
From September 2014, primary pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will receive free school meals automatically but it is still necessary for parents of these pupils, who receive one or more of the qualifying benefits listed below, to complete a Free School Meal/Pupil Payment Premium application in order for the child’s school to benefit from the additional Pupil Premium funding.
For pupils in all other year groups an application must be submitted to secure both Free School Meals and the Pupil Premium Payment.
