Early Years Pupil Premium (EYPP)
At Orion Little Stars, we are committed to giving every child the best possible start in life. One way we support this is through the Early Years Pupil Premium (EYPP), a government initiative designed to provide extra funding for children aged 3 and 4 who meet certain eligibility criteria.
What is EYPP?
The EYPP provides additional funding to help nurseries enhance the learning, development, and wellbeing of eligible children. For full guidance on eligibility and how it works, please visit the official government page here.
How EYPP Can Be Used at Orion Little Stars
At Orion Little Stars, if your child is eligible for EYPP, this funding can be used to provide your child with a free breakfast club place. Our goal is to ensure that every child has access to a safe, creative, and inspiring environment where they can play, learn, and grow.
