Pupil PremiumsSale High School believes that all our students should be able to be successful and we use our Pupil Premium funding to ensure that extra support is available to our student who require it. A student's outcome should not depend on their background and their background should not affect the ability to enjoy all aspects of school life.

Currently at Sale High School 44% of students have been eligible for and claimed free school meals in the last 6 years. We also have a small number of our children are in local care, for which the school receives extra funding.
