Children with Armed Forces parents
For the year 2021/2022 the Department for Education (DfE) recorded 1027 children as eligible to claim Service Pupil Premium across West Yorkshire. However, this may not be the full picture of children as parents may not declare that their partner (or themselves) is a member of the Armed Forces.
