James Calvert Spence College Pupil Premium Statement

The Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011 and is a sum of money allocated to schools to work with pupils who are either in receipt of Free School Meals or who have been in receipt of Free School Meals in the past six years, known as “Ever 6”.  This includes children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months and children of service personnel.
