Summary of Pupil Premium, Interventions and Impact Interventions Literacy Base Pupils receive intensive reading recovery if they record a reading age of less than 9.5 years. Reading recovery is applied until they reach a similar reading age as their peers. Impact: 73 Pupils received Reading Recovery this year adding an average of 2.5 years over a year of recovery. Literacy Base is a well established resource that has been working with our most disadvantaged readers (Pupils with a reading age of under 9 years old who are also eligible for pupil premium) for many years. The impact of Literacy Base can also be shown in the rise of expected progress in English this year of 22% and the positive gap to national others of +14. Step-Up Resource Base A base used by our disadvantaged and vulnerable pupils for pastoral support, transition programmes, long term referrals, EBD interventions, curriculum support, KS3 Mentoring, 1 – to – 1 support, EAL support, group work, equipment support, uniform support or even a safe place to go – they even supply breakfast. Impact: Difficult to measure but there have been 625 visits to Step-up by disadvantaged pupil for some or all of the support and 72 pupils eligible for the pupil premium have received mentoring at KS3. All Looked After Children (11) also receive our LAC Mentor for regular meetings. Curriculum Support English Disadvantaged pupils who are 2 sub-levels or more below their target level receive either 1to1 teaching from a qualified English teacher or group coaching form our Curriculum Support Assistant on a range of spelling, punctuation and grammar interventions. This is targeted at KS3. At KS4 we have the English form which is a form of pupils at risk of underachieving who receive daily interventions in form time and 1 extra hour per week of English teaching from the Head of English. Impact: 233 pupils eligible for the Pupil Premium have received intervention this year (the support has been running for several years) and this has led to a gap to National Others of +14% this year. Curriculum Support Maths Pupils are tested each half term to track their progress and understanding throughout KS3 and KS4. Once pupils have been identified for intervention support they are given additional support during maths lessons as well as extra intervention sessions on a 1-1 basis.
