Service Premium
As part of the Military Covenant the British Government has paid the Service Premium to schools since 2011. For each child of serving personel schools receive £300. This is to be spent supporting these children as the government recognises that children of service families can need additional support due to mobility issues.
This year we have received £13,500 for 45 children from service families.
We have a number of Armed Forces families here at Caen Communit Primary. Rather then a blanket approach we look at each child and their respective needs so we can best plan for their learning and pastoral support.
