Impact
At the end of KS2 in 2014, our Free School Meals pupils had reached higher standards than all pupils nationally in reading, writing and maths. They had also made more progress than all children nationally in reading, writing and maths.
The gap between our FSM children and non FSM children has closed by the end of KS2. We were awarded £1,000 from the DfE for successfully closing the gap for these children.
