Kings Furlong Junior School – Pupil Premium Plan 2020-21
The key aims of our Pupil Premium Plan are to ensure that:
- Identified barriers to progress and wellbeing are minimised and their effects lessened.
- The quality of teaching and learning enables our Pupil Premium children to make at least equal progress with their non-Pupil Premium peers.
- Additional support and guidance is given to our PP children in order for them to achieve in line with their non-PP peers, including having access to activities in and after school.
- Our PP parents are communicated with and involved with their children's learning and progress.
- The leadership of the school articulates a clear vision with expectation on the standard of provision and pupil outcomes for PP children and that this is monitored vigorously and regularly.
Barriers:
- poor vocabulary acquisition and language skills
- very low ks1 attainment for cohort 18
- poor metacognition in children working below ARE
- greater proportion of SEND in PP group than non-PP group
- lower levels of engagement in reading than non-PP group
- lower reading attainment in PP group – more PP children in lowest 20% than non-PP
- gap in attendance between PP and non-PP groups.
- increased probability of significant wider family/welfare issues
- greater proportion of PP group experience mental health and wellbeing issues
- lower proportion of PP children achieve ARE combined compared to non-PP peers
- fewer opportunities to engage in wider curriculum or outside interests
