Information To Parents

Please be aware that the Government provides all schools with funding income which is called the Pupil Premium. This is a Government initiative to target resources to support pupil progress and improve life chances.

As you will be aware the Governors and staff of the school always put children first and invest every penny received from the Government into your child’s schooling. To this end and for your information, the pupil premium funding has been spent this year on providing additional resources for the children, investing in outdoor education (trips and visits), additional classes, summer and Easter schools as well as extra teachers and support staff.

This investment will enable your children to make even greater progress at Wigston Academy.
