What is Early Years Pupil Premium?
Early Years Pupil Premium (EYPP) is additional funding early years settings receive for disadvantaged 3- and 4-year-olds. The funds are used to improve the education provided, accelerate progress of those children, and provide experiences that enhance the child’s learning.
