• Pupil Premium Funding - Free School Meals - Eligibility Check

  Fri 17 Apr 2020 J Jameson

  Dear Parents/Carers

  During this particularly difficult and uncertain time it is always good to check if you are entitled to any additional support from the Government if you are struggling financially. 

  The Pupil Premium grant is a grant allocated to schools to support pupils, whose families may need help and support due to all sorts of circumstances and meet the Government criteria. Part of this grant is for children who are eligible for Pupil Premium Free School Meals and could receive Free School Meals during their time in school (as long as they remain eligible). 

  This can be applied for at any time of the year as it is dependent on circumstances and we know that personal circumstances can change at any time particularly at the current time. 

  If you feel that your child may be eligible for Pupil Premium Free School Meals then please read the criteria below and go to the online Parent Portal to check if this is the case. It does not affect anything by checking or applying. Your application will only be successful if you as a family meet the criteria. It will be a simple yes of no after the application has been checked. 

  If you are successful you will be notified directly and we as a school will also be notified. 

  It is worth checking.  Please find attached the Lincolnshire County Council information and guidance. 

  Apply for free school meals

  Get extra funding for your school

  If you receive any benefits, you should tell your school as they can get extra funding to support your child called the Pupil Premium grant. These benefits include:

  • Universal Credit - your household income must be less than £7,400 a year (after tax and not including any benefits you get)
  • Income Support
  • Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
  • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • The guaranteed element of state Pension Credit
  • Child Tax Credit (provided you're not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more £16,190)
  • Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit

  Children who get paid these benefits directly can also get free school meals. 

  All you need to do is follow the link below and create an account using your email address on the online Parent Portal : 

  https://www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/schools-and-education/free-school-meals/

  https://www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/school-pupil-support/apply-free-school-meals

   

  Please note that Free School Meals through Pupil Premium Grant Funding is not the same as Universal Infant Free School Meals.

  If you have questions or would like further information please contact Mrs Jameson or Mrs Rycroft-Jones at school. 

  Kind regards

• Summer Term 1: Message to our children and families

  Fri 17 Apr 2020 J Jameson

  Good morning everyone

   

  I hope you are all well and everyone is safe and healthy. I also hope you all managed to have a good rest over Easter and enjoy the lovely sunshine. Thank you to everyone who has been keeping in touch and sending photos of the children and what they have been doing. It is lovely to see how creative the children and you as families are being. 

   

  As we know the start of the new term is this coming Monday and in order to try and keep things as normal as is possible (if that is possible!) learning at home will start again. The Class Teachers have been busy preparing and planning the learning activities and projects for the next week.  You can access all learning for the next week and beyond on the school website under the dedicated Class Page for your child. All other communication will continue to be via the Class Emails or via my email if needed. 

   

  We know this continues to be a difficult time for all of the children and for you as parents/carers as your children continue to remain at home and unable to attend school. We do not know what the Governments plans are in terms of lifting the lockdown and opening schools, and the only information that I receive is exactly what you receive by watching the daily news. However as soon as I do know anything I will let you know.  In the meantime we will continue to provide the best support we can to all of you, to the best of all of our abilities. If you need any help or support- whatever this may be please do contact us.  

   

  We have been lucky enough to receive support for many of our families who have been facing difficulty during this time, whether that is due to being furloughed or lose of finances etc, through amazing local charities providing food and fruit parcels. We have been astounded and humbled by the generosity of the local communities in helping vulnerable people during this time and we will be forever grateful. If you do find yourself in this situation or in need please contact me directly and I will do what I can to help. These are times when we need to pull together and help each other and no one could have predicted how this situation could impact any one of us. 

   

  Also we have been fortunate enough to continue to provide food parcels for our Free School Meal children.  I will be sending information regarding how to check if your child is eligible in a seperate email. Please do check as you may be eligible now even though you might not have been previously. Every little helps. 

   

  Please take care of yourselves and tell the children that we miss them and we are looking forward to seeing them as soon as we can. 

   

  Thank you for your support as always

  Mrs Jameson and the Quadring Staff Team
