Summary of Pupil Premium Expenditure 2013/14

Westfield Academy received £178,706 in pupil premium funding for the year ending August 31st 2014.

Students with Free School Meals and Ever 6 make up 24% of the school population.

GCSE results published in August 2014 indicate that the gap between FSM and non FSM pupils narrowed from 41% in 2013 to 22% in 2014. The national average for 2013 was 27%, so we believe this will mean our gap is likely to be below the national average in 2014.
