We used our pupil premium funding last year 2018-2019 to buy back time for our children – time to be listened to, time to talk, time to draw, time to be in the company of an adult who has no agenda other than to be interested and available. We have used our pupil premium funding to employ a skilled part time Early Years Teacher to carry out a ‘drawing and talking’ project. The project was such a success, the funding for the current year 2019-2020 will be spent in the same way. Please click on the link below for further information on this project.
