Pupil Premium

The Pupil Premium is additional funding provided by the government to help improve educational outcomes for pupils in state-funded schools in England deemed to be disadvantaged.Funding is allocated to schools based on the number of pupils who:
  • Are currently eligible for free school meals, or have been eligible at any point in the last six years (Ever 6 FSM)
  • Have previously been looked after by a local authority, including children adopted from care or from state care outside England and Wales
The Service Pupil Premium (SPP) provides additional support for children from service families. This funding is included within the wider Pupil Premium allocation. Pupils supported through SPP are not necessarily from financially disadvantaged backgrounds.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/3"][vc_column_text][ut_service_icon_box color="#fbba00" hovercolor="#002664" icon="fa-file-pdf-o" headline="Pupl Premium Statement" width="fourth" last="true" target="_blank" url="https://thenobelschool.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Pupil_premium_strategy_statement_24-5-revised-.pdf"] Learn more...

How We Use the Funding

We are committed to using this funding effectively to ensure high standards and strong progress for all eligible pupils. Our approach is guided by research from the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) on “what works” in improving outcomes.In line with the EEF’s three-tiered approach, funding is focused on:
  • High-quality teaching – including staff professional development, recruitment and retention
  • Targeted academic support – such as one-to-one or small group tuition
  • Wider strategies – addressing non-academic barriers to learning, including attendance, behaviour, and social and emotional wellbeing, and supporting enrichment opportunities
We have the potential to contribute towards uniform and essential equipment. Contribution towards academic and non-academic trips will be considered on a case-by-case basis and will factor in the funding we receive for each child. Through careful planning and evidence-based practice, we aim to ensure every child is supported to achieve their full potential.

In March 2018, Ofsted confirmed us as ‘good’; we now intend to be ‘outstanding’ at our next inspection.
