| Increased number of children achieving a GLD at the end of EYFS | An additional, experienced Teacher to work across Early Years. | Increased numbers of children achieving GLD at the end of Reception.
With some children there has been a noticeable improvement in their self-confidence.
PP children were identified on planning and as a result children made better progress.
Higher achieving children were targeted more effectively. |
This approach was successful and this approach will be modified and used in future.

| Achievement for All used to target vulnerable groups of children. | Vulnerable groups identified and parents/ carers invited in for a number of structured conversations throughout the year. | The majority of parents/ carers attended the meetings and were willing to work alongside school to meet the targets that were set.
Targets were then reviewed at the end of each assessment cycle with the parents/ carers.
We found was the language barrier was an issue with some parents/ carers as a number of our parents have EAL. |
This approach will be used again this year. Staff will continue to receive CPD to support them.
Pay for interrupters where needed. |

| EAL children to make better than expected progress and to demonstrate increased confidence in social situations. | A teacher to support EAL children x4 mornings a week. | Children new to English received an intensive language support for 8 weeks. Some children were withdrawn from their classes to work on specific areas.
Some children who received the intensive language support made significant progress.
During pupil progress meetings at the end of each cycle staff will be assigned according to the needs of the children.
|
If there is a need later in the year language support will be put in place. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Funding for extra curricular activities | PP children have a contribution paid towards the cost of after school clubs such as horse riding and trampolining. | Children who otherwise wouldn’t have had the opportunity were able to attend a variety of different after school clubs.
Children were able to socialise with a variety of different children.
For some children it has been noticed that there has been a increase in confidence.
Children had non-academic achievements celebrated in assemblies. |
This approach will continue to be used this year. | £146 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
