  WELCOME TO

##  Our Lady & St Edward's Catholic Primary School

 Our school is a happy hard working community in which staff, parents, pupils and parishioners take pride. We primarily serve the parish of Our Lady & St. Edward’s with a number of children coming from the surrounding districts. Many of our families attend church on a regular basis and are very actively involved in the life of the parish. School and parish enjoy close links.

## **Pupil Premium**

The Pupil Premium funding was introduced in April 2011 and paid using a specific grant based on school census figures for pupils. Pupil premium is additional funding received by schools for each pupil from disadvantaged families or backgrounds. Findings show that, as a group, children who have been eligible for free school meals at any point in time have consistently lower educational attainment than those who have never been eligible for free school meals.
