Barriers to future attainment (for pupils eligible for PP)
In-school barriers (issues to be addressed in school, such as poor oral language skills)
		Within each year group there are a small number of pupils eligible for the pupil premium and although there are some common barriers we endeavour to identify each pupil’s unique circumstances and address these through individualised provision
		Within some year groups, in key stage 2 there are concerns with confidence and motivation
C.		Writing achievement and progress is being monitored across the school, use of marking and feedback to support pupil progress continues
External barriers (issues which also require action outside school, such as low attendance rates)
D.		For some pupils attendance and punctuality is below our expectations and they miss out on important learning
Desired outcomes (Desired outcomes and how they will be measured)									Success criteria
	Continue the systematic approach to organisation and planning of interventions by support staff, with a strong focus upon impact (on-going outcomes and provision)								To strengthen key systems to ensure disadvantaged pupils’ individual needs are addressed so that the difference between this group and others nationally continues to be reduced
	Improved confidence and motivation of some PP in Key stage 2								Accelerated progress of identified pupils in key stage 2 leads to children being in a better position to achieve expected standard by the end of KS2
	The school to provide more enriching experiences of the world and to broaden pupils vocabulary								PP have increased their understanding of the world through in school experiences and wider knowledge is shown through written evidence. PP SATs results in writing have improved to be at National /LA or above.
	Increase the attendance rate of pupils eligible for PP								Overall PP attendance improves from 92.98% to 96%.

Quality of teaching for all
Desired outcome	Chosen action / approach	Estimated impact: Did you meet the success criteria? Include impact on pupils not eligible for PP, if appropriate.	Lessons learned (and whether you will continue with this approach)	Cost

The difference between non disadvantaged and PP is diminishing at the end of the key stage however there was there are still some individuals who have not made accelerated progress. Precision teaching has been effective in accelerating progress for most pupils and will be continued. The use of 1:1 and small group support will be incorporated into the quality first teaching to ensure that PPP are able to achieve nationally expected standards. Progress of pupils continues to improve however this is still not consistent across all subjects and cohorts.	£2000
