Principles of Pupil Premium Funding
Our guiding principle is to direct the pupil premium funding towards initiatives that will have the greatest impact on achievement, based on research evidence.We believe that it is important to allocate a significant proportion of our money into improving teaching and learning across the school. As the chart below shows,the effect good teaching hason a disadvantaged student improves progress significantly,and more so than for anon-disadvantaged student.The use of data, on academic performance, as well as possible barriers to learning such as attendance, reading age and attitude to learning,will also continue to steer the allocation of funding. Targeted interventions and support are based on a needs analysis, which helps to identify priority classes, groups and individuals.
