Our Pupil Premium Promise - all children who qualify for the Pupil Premium will have weekly access to one - to - one or small group intervention in an area of learning or pastoral support which will aim to accelerate their rate of progress, no matter what their academic starting point.
All our work through the pupil premium will be aimed at accelerating progress and moving children to age related expectations. Initially this will be in Literacy and Numeracy.
Pupil premium resources may also be used to target more able children on FSM to achieve L3 at the end of KS1 or L5 at the end of KS2
Children receiving this funding are targeted according to their individual areas of need or specific next steps in learning. Our leadership team use performance data, behavioural records and pastoral notes to identify such areas.
Children do not receive “off the shelf” interventions but instead a bespoke package of support which enables them to make progress. In practice this includes:
1 to 1 time with a teacher throughout the week to work on next steps
1 to 1 mentoring
Parental support from the our inclusion manager
Small group interventions
Music lessons
Funded places on school trips
This is enabled through careful time tabling of teaching and support staff and in many cases the most highly qualified staff members deliver interventions and support.
Parents of children qualifying for the Pupil Premium are invited to extra target setting meetings throughout the year which take place between themselves, the class teacher and a member of the school’s leadership team. There is an expectation that parents contribute to learning at home as part of a home school partnership.
The leadership team use the school’s robust tracking system to establish a clear picture of the progress made by each child in receipt of pupil premium funding, and to critique the success of interventions and their future place in the timetable.
