Pupil Premium Report 2015 - 2016

OVERVIEW:

The Pupil Premium was introduced by the Coalition Government in April 2011 to provide additional support for looked after children and those from low income families. The extra funding is made available to schools to help them narrow the attainment gap that still exists between pupils from disadvantaged and more affluent backgrounds.

The vast majority of our Pupil Premium funding is spent on Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) to deliver additional interventions to pupils. Crucially, these interventions concentrate on the core areas ofEnglish and Maths to close gaps in basic skills.
We use the following intervention strategies:

Early Bird sessions
late Owl sessions
Better Reading Partnership (BRP);
Sounds Write;
Linking Letters and Sounds;
Wellington Square;
Numcion;
Mathletics.

Funding has also been used, in the form of a Learning Mentor, to provide well-targeted support to improve attendance, behaviour or links with families where these are barriers to a pupil?s learning.
We have also used funding to fund Breakfast Club places and School Trips.

OBJECTIVES FOR PUPIL PREMIUM IN THIS SCHOOL:

Pupil Premium will be used to provide additional educational support to improve the progress and to raise the standard of achievement for these pupils;
The funding will be used to narrow and close the gap between the achievement of these pupils and their peers;
As far as its powers allow, the school will use the additional funding to address any underlying inequalities between children eligible for Pupil Premium and others;
We will ensure that the additional funding reaches the pupils who need it most and that it makes a significant impact on their education and lives.

ACCOUNTABLITY

The Head Teacher and Leadership Team will regularly and rigorously monitor, evaluate and review the strategies we have put in place for Pupil Premium and report to the governing body on its progress and impact.

TRATEGY FOR USING THE FUNDING:

The school has looked carefully at the needs of each pupil and we decided to use the following intervention strategies:

Providing small group work for pupils entitled to PP funding with experienced Learning Supports Assistants (LSAs) focussed on overcoming gaps in learning to help them make improved progress and to raise their standards of achievement;
1:1 support for pupils entitled to PP funding to help them make improved progress and to raise their standards of achievement;
Additional teaching and learning opportunities for pupils entitled to PP funding provided through trained LSAs or external agencies to help them make improved progress and to raise their standards of achievement;
Acquiring effective materials for pupils entitled to PP funding aimed at raising standards, particularly in reading and mathematics.
All our work through the pupil premium will be aimed at accelerating progress moving pupils entitled to PP funding to at least age related expectations. Initially this will be in Literacy and Numeracy
Pupil premium resources may also be used to target able pupils entitled to PP funding to achieve L3 at the end of KS1 or L5 at the end of KS2
Fund additional curriculum opportunities and educational trips.
