Pupil Premium

As a school, we do ensure that all disadvantaged pupils are treated equally and that provision is made, where necessary, to overcome any financial, educational or emotional barriers. At the start of 2017-2018, our aim was to appoint a member of staff to coordinate and set Pupil Premium (PP) interventions. This has successfully been done and with trained auxiliary staff delivering the innovative interventions 4 times per week, we have seen self-esteem and the social and emotional impact these interventions are providing, increase the pupils’ mind set upon returning to class by giving them a readiness to learn. In addition, our in-house trained counsellor also supports our PP pupils, and pupils are now displaying greater confidence and positive attitude to their learning.
