Use of Pupil Premium

The Government initiative to improve the outcomes for disadvantaged pupils provides schools with additional funding for each child who is entitled to, or ever has been entitled to, Free School Meals (FSM) over the last 6 years.

From April 2014, maintained schools (funded by the local education authority), non-maintained special schools (not funded by the local education authority) will also attract the Pupil Premium for children:

that were adopted from care on or after 30 December 2005 (under the Adoption and Children Act 2002);
that left care under a Special Guardianship Order on or after 30 December 2005 (under the Children Act 1989);
that left care under a Residential Order on or after 14 October 1991 (under the Children Act 1989);
where the parent self-declares their child’s status to the school, providing supporting evidence (e.g. an adoption order); and
where the school records on the January School Census that it has a child on roll who meets the above criteria.
where their parents are currently serving in the armed forces.

Children who are currently in care will be allocated funding through Virtual Schools accessible following the first PEP (Personal Education Plan) meeting, via an application form.

All schools have an obligation to report on how the money has been spent and the impact that it has had on the achievement of the pupils.

How we are planning to use the money 2015/2016
We are using the money to support eligible pupils in a holistic way, taking into consideration their academic, emotional and social well-being. We continually review provision, using data analysis to track pupil progress and achievement. Provisions may be changed throughout the year to meet pupil needs.

OBJECTIVES OF PUPIL PREMIUM SPENDING

When making decisions about using pupil premium funding it is important to consider the context of the school and the subsequent challenges faced. Common barriers for FSM children can be less support at home, weak language and communication skills, lack of confidence, more frequent behaviour difficulties, and attendance and punctuality issues. There may also be complex family situations that prevent children from flourishing. The challenges are varied and there is no “one size fits all”. Our key objective in using the Pupil Premium Grant is to narrow the gap between pupil groups. As a school we have an excellent track record of ensuring that pupils make good progress, but historically levels of attainment have been lower for FSM (eligible for free school meals) – this is also a national trend. Through targeted interventions we are working to eliminate barriers to learning and progress. For children who start school with low attainment on entry, our aim is to ensure that they make accelerated progress in order to reach age related expectations + as they move through the school.

We have analysed our data thoroughly, examined the impact of current interventions and have made use of a range of research to inform our decision making. This year our key priorities for PP children will be:

To improve parental engagement (LPPA)
To provide targeted interventions delivered by the class teacher or other qualified teachers
To raise the attainment and progress in maths
To improve pupil’s attitude to learning
To support the emotional well-being of pupils and reduce barriers to learning

We will continue with our new whole school approach to supporting children in developing their skills as writers by focusing on developing children’s speaking skills through the use of ICT – film making, writing blogs and broadcasting using our radio station. We want all children to be able to talk confidently about their learning, where they are and what they need to do to improve, so each child will have a mentoring session every term with their class teacher. In addition we will continue to strengthen parental engagement in learning, through increasing the support on offer for parents (skills sessions, training in the curriculum and targeted parents’ meetings). Out training for staff this year will include a focus on phonics, writing, peer and self-assessment, higher order thinking, metacognition and developing cognitive conflict.

Objective/Strategies	Cost	*Actual* Outcome/Impact
To raise the attainment and progress in mathematics by: -Fund 11+ private tuition -Introduce upper school maths club -Introduce parents’maths support groups	£4,200	Identified pupils made accelerated progress. The gap in attainment between pupil premium and non- pupil premium either narrowed or the PPG children out performed the non- ppg children. ( See Disadvantage pupils’ results 2016 table above)
To provide targeted interventions delivered by the class teacher or other qualified teachers Pupil Premium progress meetings to be held half termly with Deputy Head, Class Teacher, Intervention teacher and Learning Mentor Targeted interventions planned and reviewed	£43,250	Identified pupils have made accelerated progress This can be seen from the points progress on our new LL assessment system (without levels). The gap in attainment between pupil premium and non- pupil premium has either narrowed or PPG children have outperformed non-PPG children. ( See Disadvantage pupils’ results 2016 table above)
To improve parental engagement by: -Allocating a Learning Mentor with specific responsibilities for PP pupils to establish closer links and support -Engaging parents in learning support activities -Class teachers to have at least one meeting with all PP families every term	£13,500	Parents are better equipped to support the demands of ensuring their children are ready for learning. This has been achieved building vital links though parent workshops and coffee mornings. Punctuality and attendance improves for selected pupils (need data) Identified pupils have made accelerated progress The gap in attainment between pupil premium and non- pupil premium either narrowed or the PPG children out performed the non- ppg children. ( See Disadvantage pupils’ results 2016 table above)
To improve attitudes to learning and aspirations Pupils to receive weekly music tuition from music teacher and be allocated an instrument to practise at home Selected pupils to receive additional weekly multi-sports lesson Priority allocation of extracurricular clubs Funding for trips and residential	£15,400	Punctuality and attendance has improved for selected pupils Confidence and self-esteem improved for all children involved, through feedback and questionnaires.

To build a new library in the playground To convert the old library into an extra year 6 classroom – this will include adding wall boards, furniture and a sink.	£8,050	-to have a more accessible library -to improve links with the infant school by having a joint library, which in turn frees up valuable space for an extra classroom. -to encourage parents/children to read/select books together. -to raise the profile, progress and attainment of reading. -by adding an extra classroom, reduces the year 6 class sizes from 26 to 21 (approx. 20% reduction), which will mean quality first teaching will have a greater impact on the learning and assessment of children’s progress and attainment.
