Reporting and accountability
For the current academic year, schools must publish:
- their school’s pupil premium grant allocation amount
- a summary of the main barriers to educational achievement faced by eligible pupils at the school
- how they’ll spend the pupil premium to overcome those barriers and the reasons for that approach
- how they’ll measure the effect of the pupil premium
- the date of the next review of the school’s pupil premium strategy
- how they spent the pupil premium allocation
- the effect of the expenditure on eligible and other pupils

Following on from new DfE guidelines published on 1st November 2021, schools are now required to publish a Pupil Premium Strategy to cover a three-year period. At Cranborne Middle School, our strategy will be evidence-led, both in terms of identifying the priorities for our students, but also when deciding which methods and strategies present the best value for money in terms of their effectiveness.
This will be published on our website no later than 31st December 2021 and will be reviewed annually thereafter.
