: Pupil Premium Network Sharing good practice across the county to lead an effective Pupil Premium Strategy back in your school

We are continuing our Pupil Premium network sessions for a second year! We want to make meeting the needs of Pupil Premium pupils everyone’s business. Connect with other Pupil Premium leaders to explore the latest guidance, share what works, learn from diverse contexts, and strengthen the link between Pupil Premium, inclusion and school improvement.

During the four sessions, you will:

· Engage with the latest guidance, research and evidence relating to Pupil Premium, disadvantage and inclusion.

· Strengthen your understanding of the needs of disadvantaged pupils within your own context.

· Develop a range of practical, evidence-informed resources to support staff development and school improvement.

· Work collaboratively with other Pupil Premium leaders to share effective practice, learn from one another, and explore common challenges and solutions.

· Consider how your Pupil Premium strategy can be aligned with wider school priorities, including inclusion, attendance, SEND and attainment.

The sessions are led by Jenn Sills, Deputy Director and Trust Social Justice Lead and are taking place at 15:30 – 17:00 on: 

• Wednesday 18^th November 2026 at Rowanfield Junior School
• Wednesday 25^th November 2026 – dedicated strategy workshop at Rowanfield Junior School
