Equality of Opportunity

Carshalton High School for Girls is an inclusive learning community in which all its students are given opportunities to learn and succeed within a safe, well ordered environment. High expectation and aspiration are integral parts of our ethos and we are totally committed to do the best for all our students. There is a culture of staff going the extra distance for students and a real drive and determination to ensure that all our students reach their full potential and achieve outcomes that are at least in line with, if not exceed, those of their peers nationally.

What is the Pupil Premium?

The pupil premium grant is paid to schools for the purpose of increasing the aspirations and attainment of students from disadvantaged backgrounds. 

The money the school receives is based on the students who are recorded as being eligible for Free School Meals in the last six years, who are ‘Looked After’ or who have a parent serving in the armed forces.

Nationally, there are gaps in the progress (the amount a student improves whilst at school) and attainment (the final grades achieved) made between pupil premium and non-pupil premium students. The grant is paid to schools to implement strategies to reduce this gap. Detailed strategy and funding information specific to CHSG can be found in the attached documents.
