The Pupil Premium and the Service Premium at Trevelyan Middle School
 
The Pupil Premium and the Service Premium were introduced by the government in 2011.
 
The Pupil Premium is a fund attached to disadvantaged pupils. It is designed to help these pupils improve their progress and achieve their full potential. The fund is attached to pupils are currently in receipt of Free School Meals, but also to any child who has ever received Free School Meals over the last six years. Funding is also allocated to looked-after or previously looked-after children; this includes those pupils who have left local authority care through adoption; a special guardianship order; or a child arrangements order.
 
The Service Premium is allocated to pupils with a parent serving in the HM forces or where there is a parent who has retired on a pension with the Ministry of Defence.
