Pupil Premium
At St. John’s we believe very strongly that all children, particularly disadvantaged pupils, deserve the best possible education and we should work together to enable them all to ‘fly high like an eagle.’
- Do you receive financial support?
- Do you serve in the military?
- Is your child eligible for free school meals?
- Is your child a Looked After or Previously Looked After Child?
- If the answer to any of these questions is YES then the school may receive an additional grant designed to help disadvantaged pupils in all areas of their school life.
We have high expectations for every child and understand that our children are individuals with a range of needs, both in terms of learning but also socially and emotionally. We aim to harness the opportunities given to us through the pupil premium grant to ensure teaching is excellent and that additional support and interventions are of high quality and high impact.
We strive to eliminate inequalities and have a ‘can do’ approach towards all we do with our children and families. The senior leadership team support staff to believe in the potential and ability of all our children and are dedicated to giving our learners every opportunity to do their best.
If you have any questions about pupil premium you are always welcome to discuss this with your child’s class teacher or the pupil premium leads Ali Vining or Laura Swithinbank, alternatively the school office can help. If you think you might be eligible for the pupil premium grant and free school meals, more information can also be found on the Bristol City Council website which includes a link to the online application process.
