Pupil Deprivation Grant Funding
St Philip Evans Catholic Primary School
The Pupil Deprivation Grant
Each year the Welsh Government allocate a specified amount of money for schools to help improve attainment
for pupils from deprived backgrounds, specifically those who are eFSM.
At St Philip Evans we use our PGD funding to...
- Run Intervention Programmes
- Contribute to costs of enrichment experiences
- Support Learning Clubs and after school provision.
- Enhance curriculum experiences through helping to subsidise educational visits.
We monitor progress and evaluate the effectiveness of our provision.
Plans for the PDG are integrated into our School Improvement Plan as our strategies form part of our whole school
drive to raise standards and meet the needs of all learners.
The provision of these whole school strategies and targeted interventions ensure that every eFSM
learner benefits as an individual. The school as a whole improves its capacity to support all learners to reach their
full potential.
