Penistone Grammar School is a large 11-18 mixed comprehensive school. The progress of our disadvantaged cohort is an area we must improve to ensure these students have the best life chances possible. The UN Convention on the rights of the child stated that education must develop every child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full.

In the  2017/2018 financial year, Pupil Premium funding of £167,700 has been allocated to Penistone Grammar School ALC.   Pupil Premium funding is available to schools as part of a government funded programme to promote the achievement of students who have received free school meals at any point in the previous 6 years, those students who are in Local Authority care and children of serving members of the armed forces.
