Pupil premium allocations for the 2021/22 financial year have been published here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/pupil-premium-allocations-and-conditions-of-grant-2021-to-2022.

The Department has also published the impact of moving to using the October census for the pupil premium for mainstream and special schools. This is available to view here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/pupil-premium-effective-use-and-accountability.

The calculation of pupil premium allocations is resource intensive. There are no plans to calculate hypothetical allocations showing what each school would have received if the pupil premium had been allocated on a different basis.
