Pupil Premium & Sports Premium
Pupil Premium: 2023/24
The Pupil Premium provides additional funding for state-funded schools in the 2023 to 2024 academic year. This funding will help schools to deliver evidence-based approaches for supporting disadvantaged pupils.
Later in the 2023/24 academic year, we will publish information about our use of pupil premium and its impact. This will be published as part of our pupil premium reporting.

Catch-up Premium: 2020/21
In the 2020/21 academic year, schools received funding to support children and young people to catch up on missed learning caused by coronavirus (COVID-19).
Schools were able to use this funding for specific activities to support their pupils’ education recovery in line with the curriculum expectations in the actions for schools during the coronavirus outbreak guidance.
Schools were given the flexibility to use their funding in a way that suits their cohort and circumstances, with the expectation that it is used for specific activities which will help pupils catch up on missed learning.
More information about the 2022-23 Catch-up Premium can be found here.
The report below outlines our expenditure of the Catch-up Premium and the impact of the actions taken by our school to support pupils.
PE and Sport Premium
Physical Education and Sport have a high profile at Eccleston Lane Ends Primary School.
Mr Ellison is our curriculum leader for PE. He is responsible for the development of our PE curriculum and, alongside Mr Hall (our extra-curricular lead), takes a lead role in organising the wide range of sports, clubs and opportunities for physical activity across the school. Mr Ellison also works alongside the whole senior leadership team to make effective use of the additional funding given to schools by the government to raise the profile and standard of sports and PE across the school. This fund (the PE and sport premium) is designed to support schools to deliver on the government's commitment to ensuring that children and young people have access to at least 60 minutes of sport and physical activity per day, with a recommendation of 30 minutes of this delivered during the school day.
Our strategic plan for the use of PE and sport premium can be found below. We have also published information about the impact of our PE and sport premium in recent academic years.
