Objectives in spending PPG:

To address identified gaps in attainment of pupils who receive pupil premium funding.

Use pupil premium money to increase provision of targeted intervention and wave 2
and 3 groups of children for identified pupils

To further enhance the effectiveness of monitoring and evaluation of the leadership
team, to achieve successful outcomes for those whom the pupil premium supports

To ensure children are on track to make expected (or better) progress by the end of
Key Stage 2

To embed and enhance the identification and targeted support of pupils who receive
Pupil premium funding.
Summary of spending and actions taken:

Progress of children closely tracked and targeted intervention refined.

SMT use SIMS data analysis to look at pupil premium progress across their Key
stages

The provision of intervention activities following assessments and pupil progress
meetings including: Brandling Reading Partnerships, Power of 2, Lexia, RM
Easimaths, Talk for Writing, Springboard Maths, Testbase, Mathletics, success@

Outcomes to date:

The achievement of pupils for whom the pupil premium provides support is
outstanding. Evidence from pupil premium tracking, shows that the majority of
children for whom pupil premium supports made at least expected progress in
English and mathematics across the school. In Year 6 100% of pupil premium
achieved the expected standard for reading, writing and mathematics.

At KS1 pupils entitled to pupil premium also made outstanding progress to attain
above average outcomes with 80% achieving above or expected outcomes in
reading, writing and maths.

Although there are still gaps in attainment between pupil premium children and their
peers, these are closing rapidly and children have now been targeted with
increasingly focussed interventions and strategies by increased investment in
staffing. Analysis of recent progress shows that interventions are closing the gaps
and leading to accelerated progress.

In year 3, 77% are on or above national standards for reading compared to 78% of
non-pupil premium. In writing and maths, this figure is 78% compared to 85% of
non-pupils premium.

At the end of Key Stage 1, results for pupil premium are now similar to other groups
of pupils and are in line or above national standards. With 78% of pupils achieving
above or expected standards in reading, writing and maths.
