Action Plan for Spending of Pupil premium across the school

We have a clear action plan in place led by the class teachers to address the gaps in the learning of the children through a comprehensive list of interventions and a programme of reviews through pupil progress dialogues, SEND co-ordinator and assessment coordinator as part of our School Development plan. We continue to monitor the performance of the Pupil premium children in school by tracking the effectiveness of the intervention programmes and the differentiated planning in classes. This occurs on a termly basis during pupil progress dialogues.

Spending of the Pupil premium across the school

Funds are spent on programmes of child appropriate interventions to fill the gaps in their learning. Social and behaviour strategies are introduced with 1:1 TA support when required to help with emotional difficulties. We purchase resources for individual children that have a positive impact on specific children. Financial support on school trips and to a residential trip is included in financial spends. Spending to date: Autumn – Summer 2018 – 2019 £53,120 (plus £14,930 Part funded by SEND budget for a 1:1 child) directly on interventions with the children. Invitation to join the Breakfast club has been extended to all PP children with costing being covered by PP funds.

Strategy Review for Pupil premium across the school

We review the pupil premium funding and strategy at each Standards and Effectiveness meeting with governors and monitor the impact of the funding termly through meetings with teaching staff during pupil progress dialogue. Here action plans are evaluated and improved to ensure provision is tailored to the child.

Impact of Pupil Premium funding

TA targeted and differentiated activities to support spelling and comprehension activities are helping to build confidence to achieve expected results. Targeted support in Maths is ensuring FSM have the confidence to have a go. Behaviour and self-esteem sessions with FSM are helping to build their confidence.
