EARLY YEARS PUPIL PREMIUM (EYPP)
Early Years Pupil Premium (EYPP)
Three and four year olds attending Westminster Nursery School will be able to get Early Years Pupil Premium funding if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
- their family gets 1 of the following:
- Income Support
- income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
- income-related Employment and Support Allowance
- support under part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
- the guaranteed element of State Pension Credit
- Child Tax Credit (provided they're not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
- Working Tax Credit run-on, which is paid for 4 weeks after they stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
- Universal Credit
- they have been looked after for 1 day or more
- they have been adopted from care
- they have left care under a special guardianship order or residence order
Children with entitlement are awarded £0.53 per hour additional funding. This equates to £302.10 per EYPP eligible pupil over a full school year.
It is for each individual school to decide how the Pupil Premium is spent, since they are best placed to assess what additional provision should be made for the individual pupils within their responsibility. However, schools are to be held accountable for how they have used the additional funding to support pupils from low-income families.
Westminster nursery chooses how the EYPP is spent after reviewing the individual needs of each child, in order to develop each child’s potential to the maximum.
