The Pupil Premium is aimed at addressing the current underlying inequalities, which exist between children from disadvantaged backgrounds and their more affluent peers. The Pupil Premium also provides funding for children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months and the children of service personnel. Parents who need the assistance of the pupil premium are supported discreetly and no child or family is publicly identified. Discussions between the Headteacher and the family are discreet and private. #### Monitoring the Impact of Pupil Premium Funding The senior leadership team and governors track the academic progress and attendance of all pupils, including those eligible for pupil premium funding. We review our pupil premium strategy at the beginning of each academic year. **Should you have any questions about Pupil Premium funding, then please [contact](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/contact) the Headteacher.** #### Pupil Premium Strategy and Evaluation Pupil Premium Strategy 2024 - 2025 - Reviewed 2025 187 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/Pupil_Premium_Strategy_2024_-_2025_-_Reviewed_2025.pdf) Pupil Premium Strategy 24-25 176 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/09b-pupil-premium-strategy-2024-2025.pdf) Pupil Premium Strategy 23-24 237 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/pupil-premium-strategy-2023-24.pdf) Pupil Premium Statement 22-23 177 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/pupil-premium-statement-22-23.pdf) Pupil Premium Strategy 21-22 225 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/pupil-premium-statement-2021-22.pdf) Pupil Premium Strategy 20-21 226 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/item-10b-hcs-pupil-premium-strategy-20-21.pdf) Pupil Premium Strategy 19-20 278 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/12-hcs-pupil-premium-strategy-19-20.pdf) Pupil Premium Strategy 18-19 266 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/holme-community-school-pupil-premium-strategy-2018-19.pdf) ### Sports Funding We believe that an innovative, varied PE curriculum and extracurricular opportunities have a positive influence on the concentration, attitude and academic achievement of all our children. The Primary School Sport's Funding will enable us to continue to extend our provision of activities through employing additional sports professionals, developing our resources, entering into more competitive sports competition and training our staff to deliver in-house quality PE sessions. #### What is the Sports Premium? The government is providing funding of £150 million per annum for the academic years 2013/14, 2014/15 and 2016/17 to provide new and substantial primary school sport funding. The funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to primary school headteachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children. Each school receives £8000 per year, plus an extra £5 per pupil each year for the next two years. The money can only be spent on PE and sport. #### Sports Premium Strategy Statements PE and Sports Premium 25 - 26 Spending Report 82 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/PE_and_Sports_Premium_25_-_26_Spending_Report.pdf) PE and Sports Premium 24 - 25 Opportunities and Impact 78 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/PE_and_Sport_Premium_24_-_25_Opportunities_and_Impact.pdf) PE and Sports Premium 24 - 25 Spending Categories 75 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/PE_and_Sport_Premium_24_-_25__Spending_Categories.pdf) Our Evaluated Sports Premium Strategy 23-24 655 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/09c-sports-premium-strategy-2023-24-evaluated.pdf) Our Evaluated Sports Premium Strategy 22-23 658 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/spf-2022-23-evaluated.pdf) Our Evaluated Sports Premium Strategy 21-22 609 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/spf-2021-22-evaluated.pdf) PE and Sport Premium for primary schools: [More Information...](https://www.gov.uk/pe-and-sport-premium-for-primary-schools) ### Covid-19 Catch Up Premium Funding Strategy Catch Up Premium Strategy 313 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/item-10c-catch-up-premium-strategy.pdf) Our Response - A Tiered Approach 331 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/files/documents/item-10c-tiered-approach.pdf) ### Key Information - [Admissions](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/admissions) - [Data Protection](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/data-protection) - [Funding](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/funding) - [Inclusion and SEN](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/inclusion-and-sen) - [Nursery](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/nursery) - [Ofsted and Performance Data](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/ofsted-and-performance-data) - [Our Values](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/our-values) - [Policies](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/policies) - [Public Sector Equality Duty](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/public-sector-equality-duty) - [Safeguarding](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/safeguarding) ![Holme Community School](https://files.schudio.com/holme-community-school-2/images/logo/imgi_1_logo.png) ### Holme Community School North Road Holme Carnforth LA6 1QA 01524 781205 ### Useful Links - [Admissions](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/admissions) - [Policies](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/key-information/policies) - [Term Dates](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/parents/term-dates) - [Contact Us](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/contact) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/HolmeSchool/) ### Translation © Copyright 2025–2026 Holme Community School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://holmeschool.cumbria.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
