Impact of Pupil Premium |
|
The support for children from the Catholic Care worker has boosted mental well-being and self-esteem, enabling them to engage with others more effectively and positively impacting on their performance in the classroom. The children tell us they like this 1-1 or small group time away from the populated classroom and that Eileen, our Catholic Care Worker, will feedback what they agree to their teachers so they can continue to be supported. Many of our children across school made at least good or better progress in line with their peers by the end of the academic year, although for some children we know that the impact will take a longer time. At the end of KS1 3/4 Pupil Premium children met Age Related Expectations and the child who had to resit the end of Y1 phonics test passed. The child who did not meet Age Related Expectations still made progress from their starting point. At the end of KS2 4/6 Pupil Premium children met Age Related Expectations in Reading Writing and Maths although all made progress from their starting points. Our children developed resilience, perseverance and confidence as a result of first quality teaching and effective interventions. Our children also had access to breakfast club and items of uniform as well as workshops and educational visits to ensure equality of provision which enabled them to access the same experiences as non pupil premium children. Some of our children also accessed after school clubs. We will ensure that over the course of the next academic year we will rigorously monitor the impact of any interventions and the rate of progress made using the new assessment procedures in place. |
