3.   Barriers to future attainment
 In-school barriers
A.     Ensuring that pupils are on track for or exceed expectations to reach EXS or GDS from their EYFS/KS1 starting points.
B.     To improve speech and language skills (delayed on entry to Nursery. This has an impact on reading, writing and maths progress in subsequent years).
C. Opportunities to understand the wider world
D. To raise the importance of social emotional well-being including healthy lifestyles
External barriers
E. To improve attendance and punctuality for PP pupils (currently lower than non-PP pupils)
F. To increase parental involvement in education.
4.   Outcomes
Desired outcomes and how they will be measured Success criteria
A.     To strengthen approaches to teaching and learning across the school which will accelerate pupils’ progress. High quality teaching and interventions will ensure that PP children either remain on or exceed their trajectory based on EYFS or KS1 results.
B.     Speech and Language skills in Early Years. Children in Nursery and Reception will apply skills taught in the classroom in a language rich environment. Pupils eligible for PP will achieve and attain in line with peers.
C.     Opportunities to understand the wider world. For children to have a wider vocabulary as a result of visiting more places and wow days. Children to have increased self-confidence and ambitions. Data to show PP children participate in extra curriculum activities.
D.     To raise the importance of social emotional well-being including healthy lifestyles. Children’s emotional needs are met enabling them to deal with ‘life problems’ easier, with confidence, knowing what the right thing to do is.
E.      To raise the attendance and punctuality of PP pupils. To see increased number of PP pupils with attendance of above 90%.
F.      To increase parental involvement in education. To see an increase in parental involvement with their children’s homework % of children reading at home.
5.   Planned expenditure
Academic year 2018-2019
The three headings below enable schools to demonstrate how they are using the pupil premium to improve classroom pedagogy, provide targeted support and support whole school strategies.
    i.   Quality of teaching for all
Desired outcome Chosen action / approach What is the evidence and rationale for this choice? How will you ensure it is implemented well? Staff lead When will you review implementation?
Outcome A

To strengthen approaches to teaching and learning across the school which will accelerate pupil progress

 

Appraisal for 2018/19 clearly identifies pupils who must achieve EXS or GDS based on EYFS or KS1 data

 

Quality CPD for staff

By identifying children that are not on track to achieve EXS or GDS teachers can ensure that high quality interventions are used to target those pupils.

Identifying children that have the potential to reach GDS will ensure that better than expected progress can be made.
