 Objectives for Pupil Premium:

• Provide additional educational support to improve the progress and raise the attainments
  of those children eligible.
• Narrow the gap between the achievement of those children eligible and other children.
• Address any known underlying inequalities between children eligible and other children.
• Ensure that the additional funding reaches children who need it most and that it makes a significant impact on their education and lives.

• Some children suffer from emotional disruptions, such as low self-esteem or find it very difficult to regulate their emotions, which can create a barrier to learning.
• Some children may find social interactions and friendships difficult to maintain, which can create a barrier to children’s ability to focus on their learning.
• Some children and families require support to allow them to build their self-confidence and to enhance their emotional well-being.

 Focus for spending: 

The school has looked carefully at the needs of each pupil. The main aims of Pupil Premium spending are to accelerate progress to ensure children achieve age related expectations. This is to be done by:

• Providing support to accelerate children’s skills of English and Mathematics.
• Providing small group work for children and/ or 1:1 support to help them make improved progress and to raise standards of achievement.
• Increasing knowledge and understanding of teaching staff regarding issues affecting our most vulnerable children.
• Providing emotional support so children are able to make at least expected progress in the classroom.

The school also uses funding to enable children to enjoy educational visits and extra-curricular activities that children may not otherwise be able to attend.
