EYPP SPEND – 2025

Summer Term 2025

This term we looked at what would benefit the children and their families, so with the children leaving us to start school in September we sourced a voucher for each child to help towards the cost of their school uniform. We recognise that our EYPP entitled children come from lower income families who have limited additional funds and that the initial costs towards starting school can be extremely difficult to find.

We hope that by doing this we have aided families and their children by making the transition less financially stressful than it needs to be. 

Spring Term 2025

This term we have looked at resources for our EYPP children who need additional support with language and speech.  Of the cohort of EYPP children that we have this term, half have English as and additional language and the other half of the cohort have speech and language therapist involvement.  We have therefore purchased resources to help aid spoken English as much as possible for all of the children, these resources are inclusive of sound and spelling phonics tubs for targeted work with the children, introducing them to more sounds.

We have also purchased talking buttons so that the children can record their own voices and listen to themselves back again, this would promote hearing differences in the way the spoken language is heard. The remainder of the money allocated has been spent on garden resources incorporating speech in the outside learning area.
