Pupil Premium

There are no guidelines on how this money can be spent, although performance tables now contain information about the impact schools have made on closing the gap between different groups.

Schools must evidence strategies in place to raise the attainment of FSM pupils and what the associated costs are alongside attainment and progress figures for this group of children.

The Sutton Trust produced a report assessing a range of strategies which could be linked to Pupil Premium funding and could be used to improve attainment based on effectiveness and value for money.  This will be used at Eastwood Village Primary School to help strike a balance between effectiveness and cost.

Since 2012 Schools have been required to publish details of our PPG on our website, which must include:

• The amount of the school’s allocation
• Details of how it is intended to be spent
• Details of how the previous years’ allocation was spent
• The effect of the expenditure on the attainment of the pupils the grant was intended for

This should be an overall breakdown of funding and how effective it has proved.

1. Ensure the basic needs of our children are met so that they are able to access learning eg Maslow’s physiological aspects within the hierarchy of needs.
2. Ensure children attend school regularly and punctually (in line with the school target) and that no child becomes PA
3. Enable children to have high self-esteem and self-confidence
4. Enable children to access school provision in its widest sense eg creative and sporting activities
5. Provide children with effective feedback so that this helps them gain a clear understanding of what they need to do in order to improve
6. Involve parents in supporting their children’s learning
7. Provide children with collaborative learning opportunities eg group intervention support
8. Provide children with a confident and skilled staff
9. Support children to make good progress so they attain in line with or higher than national expectations
10. To accelerate the progress made in reading, writing and maths for identified groups of pupils

1. Close the gap between pupils eligible for FSM with other groups of learners
2. Provide children with first hand experiences to use as meaningful starting points for learning eg visits and visitors

50% of our pupils attracted the DfE’s Pupil Premium Grant.  Please note this figure is skewed to the detriment of the ‘actual’ rather than typically defined by Government measures, disadvantaged pupils at the School.  The reason for this being that for parents to access benefits and therefore their children have eligibility for the funding, parents need to have lived in the country for 2 years.  Many of our families are new to the country and therefore cannot access the benefits required to secure PP funding. As a result of this most of our children are widely considered disadvantaged.

Outstanding progress noted for all children collectively and in Y6 and Y1.

Expected progress noted for Y3 &Y5

In Y4 a disproportionately high % of Sen pupils and mobility factors affecting progress scores across the cohort.  See Future Actions

EYFS expected progress is 9 steps.

KS1 –KS2 expected progress is 3 steps.

Please note that pupil sets considered in this data are not always recognised externally as viable or used as a fair comparison, due to high levels of mobility in year groups, and in some cases small cohort sizes who have accessed school provision in the long term.

Future actions

Summary The RWI project continues to be effective in supporting pupils acquisition of phonics due to high mobility of the cohort.  Therefore, the project will be sustained into the next academic year.
