AnonyMouse_63 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I am not too sure ..... Hopefully there will be some more info out soon or perhaps someone else on here has more details x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_2157 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Dream girl if you are in a school nursery do you have a school bursar or business manager who deals with the budget? If so they are usually the person that the info will be sent to regarding this - that person as well as the head of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_5664 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Have asked them and they don't know anything but will check again. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_21338 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 We haven't heard any info yet , we have been receiving a ' deprivation payment' for the last few years - this is based on the IDACI scores of our children, we never know how much we will get ( if any) - I assume the pupil premium will be based on the same lines.

AnonyMouse_1490 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 We are a pre-school and have also been receiving a deprivation grant over the past few years for certain children.I think it depends on where they live.It is a very small amount but gratefully received though!!

Guest SamG Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The way I understand it is that the pupil premium will be added to the hourly free early years entitlement amount. Not sure how much extra it will be, but will wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I was at a meeting yesterday with DfE who said it is not yet known exactly how this will be distributed but it is likely to be distributed via schools - perhaps through the schools forums - and to both schools and PVI.

AnonyMouse_30128 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 don't even know if we have a school forum! so that doesn't bode well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_11396 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I thought all areas had to have a statutory schools forum working alongside your LA, made up of members including, head teachers, governors, EY, unions etc. These are we're decisions are made regarding budgets for all the different sectors within the Education system in your LA. May have got this completely wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Fredbear, you are right. There has to be a forum in each LA with reps from all interested groups, including early years. This is likely to be a route for the premium to be chanelled to schools and pre-schools. However this is thought to be likely, NOT definite yet.

AnonyMouse_9650 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Well if it goes through the schools forum the chances are that the pvi sector will not see much of it - the make up of the membership of schools forums is heavily weighted in favour of schools so unless there are specific safeguards to distribute this universally I won't be holding my breath for any of it any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I know what you mean about schools forum being heavily weighted in favor of schools. However I was told that there would also be a very specific requirement to show how the money is being used and the impact it is making. I am going to stay optimistic for the time being - the choice is do that or cry!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in a school nursery; schools receive pupil premium for all children who are vulnerable to possible underachievement. These include pupils who are entitled to fsm, looked after children and children of armed service personel. It is a current focus of Ofsted - and schools are required to report on the amount of funding received and how it is being spent to close the gap in children's learning. Hope that helps.
