Plan of action to support children in receipt of pupil premium funding for 2017-2018

Intended Outcomes for 2017-2018

 Low starting points, improve core skills:

• Differentiation through quality planning ensuring all children are able to access the curriculum alongside their peers – ensuring a range of mixed pairing and group activities for children to communicate in different ways.
• Additional phonics intervention alongside reading tasks; tracking intervention in KS1 (teacher lead).
• Termly pupil progress meetings on how we are addressing core skills in maths at KS2 and writing frames at KS1 specifically in Autumn term and Spring 1.

Attainment improves so more children in receipt of pupil premium obtain expected standards in reading, writing, maths and phonics.

Progress rates on track throughout the year: Evidence of improvements in phonics and core maths skills throughout the year.

Organisational, planning for writing:

• Teachers to teach explicitly how to plan a piece of writing using a variety of self help guides/structures.
• Teachers to plan in Success Criteria checklists for writing and self assessments for writing.
• Purchase resources - talking cards for children to rehearse and organise their writing through talking through their sentences.
• Visual timetable in every classroom, checklists for what equipment is necessary for different lessons.

Improvement in the quality and quantity of extended writing tasks

Children well prepared for lessons

Resources being used effectively to support quality writing

Developing quality friendships,

and wellbeing, develop confidence

• Provide a quality PSHE curriculum for every class throughout the year facilitating friendships through a buddy scheme.
• Provide more calm zones centrally within the school to share a book/activity with a friend
• Provide children with a trusted adult to provide encouragement and support friendship issues.
• Provide external advice and precision work from 'Blue Smile' or through the Local Authority 'Early Intervention Family Workers' to support social and emotional development and encourage confidence.
• Ensure children are attending school
• Provide additional activities during lunchtimes (a lunchtime structure where necessary).
• Provide access to interactive sports (via clubs) held at school for pupils who need support in this area.
