Evaluation and Impact of Pupil premium spending April 2015-April 2016

 

The School’s Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) strategy for April 2016-April 2017 identifies the following aims to overcome barriers to educational achievement for our pupils eligible for Pupil Premium funding:

  • To accelerate the progress and improve the attainment of pupils eligible for Pupil premium in order to narrow any gap between non Pupil Premium pupils in school and nationally.
  • To continue the progress made in improving writing and to narrow the gap for PPG pupils in Reading and Maths.
  • To improve access to learning opportunities including to books, trips and workshops
  • To address the barriers of social, emotional and mental health needs which impact on learning, behaviour, confidence and resilience
  • To address low levels of parental engagement
  • To address the need to develop parental support skills and confidence
  • To address the barriers of low attendance, punctuality and disrupted education amongst PPG pupils
