Managing entitlements and maximising pupil premium funding

Our secure online application portal allows parents and carers to determine their eligibility for free school meals (FSM) and we can share each child’s status with schools and academies in real time. Applications are processed efficiently, which reduces time and resources, delivers accurate results and maximises the ability to claim pupil premium funding.

We also provide a comprehensive uniform grants service for children in Year 7 on behalf of Hackney schools and academies. 

Both services are provided by the Admissions and Pupil Benefits team who readily have access to school admissions records and parent/carer information which facilitates the process and helps to ensure a successful transition to school.
