Pupil premium is additional funding allocated to all schools in England to support disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers.  This budget includes pupils who are currently entitled to free school meals, have been free schools meals in the past six years (FSM ‘Ever 6’), children that are cared for or adopted from care and children whose parents are in the armed forces.

We would like to remind all parents who are eligible, to apply for the Pupil Premium Grant.  This grant enables the school to provide additional support to our children where needed.  Examples of this are, access to extra-curricular clubs and additional support with specific areas of the curriculum.

How does it work?

After 15 people have signed up, they arrange a grocery delivery with ingredients to make 3 delicious and healthy recipes: Channa masala, Italian pasta sauce & Middle Eastern pilaf.  Participants get 2 weeks to complete the recipes and are placed in a mentored WhatsApp group with a mentor who specialises in nutrition.  After making each recipe, they upload a photo to WhatsApp.  After 2 weeks they graduate and receive a little gift pack via the mail and are given more recipes to grow their skills

Bags of Taste have delivered 500 courses in 2022 and would love to do the same for the Sutton community in 2023.
