Free School Meals
The Pupil Premium is government funding which is allocated to support children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for free school meals (FSM). It is allocated on a yearly basis.
At Diamond Wood Community Academy Pupil Premium funding is targeted to narrow the gap in attainment.
