 3.      Barriers to future attainment (for pupils eligible for PP)

 In-school barriers (issues to be addressed in school, such as poor oral language skills)

 A.

42% of the 2015/2016 cohort achieved Expected or above in the 2016 KS2 SATs.   Reading has been identified as a target for the whole school and more pupils in Y6 need to achieve Expected in the 2017 KS2 SATs.

B.

42% of the 2015/2016 cohort achieved Expected or above in the 2016 KS2 SATs for Reading. The Combined score was 38.5%. We need to ensure that pupils achieve Expected in all 3 areas, and that this is targeted by teachers and the SLT in all age groups throughout the school, not just in Y6.

C.

A number of pupils eligible for PP also have complex SEN/D (4 pupils in 2016-2017)

D.

Parental involvement in EYFS meetings on Reading, phonics and homework poorly attended. Some PP pupils are not read with regularly by parents.

External barriers (issues which also require action outside school, such as low attendance rates)

E.

Some pupils eligible for pupil premium have persistent attendance problems.

F.

Some pupils eligible for pupil premium cannot afford to pay for school trips and do not experience a range of enrichment experiences outside school.

G.

There is high mobility in the school and pupils who are in the school from N/R to Y6 are in the minority. Many pupils arrive in Years 4-6. There is a high number of EAL pupils in this group or pupils with higher KS1 SATs results than their abilities would warrant.

4.      Desired outcomes (desired outcomes and how they will be measured)

Success criteria

A.

Progress for pupils eligible for PP in all year groups make the required 6 STEPs of expected progress in Reading, with some targeted for 7 STEPs of progress (identified at pupil Progress Meetings Autumn 1). Whole school target for Reading linked to Teachers’ and TAs’ PM targets

See individual cohort targets set at Autumn 1 Pupil Progress Meetings.

 B.

More pupils achieve Expected in RWM Combined in Year 6. Pupils with the potential to achieve will be identified and given additional tuition to achieve Expected by end of year.

Across Year 6 of the 10 PP pupils 7 will achieve Expected in Reading, 7 in Writing and 7 in Maths.

 C.

Pupils with SEN/D make at least Expected progress in reading, writing and maths by the end of year.

See individual cohort targets set at Autumn 1 Pupil Progress Meetings.

 D.

Good Level of Development in Reception at end of year for Reading, Writing and Number to be at least 65%.

GD to be at least 65% in these specific areas in 2017.

 E.

Persistent absence attendance gap between pupils eligible for PP and other pupils to have closed by end of year. The School Attendance Officer visits school weekly.

0.7% gap has closed completely. SAO can show impact of meetings with parents and head teacher.

 F.

PP eligible pupils experience a wide range of enrichment activities.

Pupils experience residential holiday (Years 5 and 6) and school trips. There are enrichment activities in school and after school.
