Early years pupil premium (EYPP)
The early years pupil premium (EYPP) is additional funding to improve the outcomes for disadvantaged 3 and 4-year-olds.
Settings receive this funding three times a year for eligible children. You identify eligible children through your early years education entitlement (EYEE) headcount.
How to spend the EYPP
You can choose how to spend the pupil premium, but you must base it on the needs of the eligible children at your setting.
For advice on how best to spend it, email EYEE@eastsussex.gov.uk
