Actions for 2016-17

The school analyses current pupil attainment and has identified year groups where pupil premium children
need to be making accelerated progress – this has been highlighted on the school development plan 2016-17
and shared with all senior leaders who have in turn passed this onto teaching staff. Interventions and tight
monitoring of pupils progress throughout the year will continue.

Disadvantaged children did not perform as well as expected in the KS2 tests in 2016 as expected. In 2016-17
additional preparation and focus on disadvantaged children is planned to ensure that the gap between
disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged pupils is closed.

The school has identified that more children need to now be exceeding the age related expectations in each
year group, particularly those HA pupils eligible for pupil premium funding. This is identified on the school
development plan 2016-17
