5. Planned expenditure | |||||||||||||||
Academic year | 2018-2019 | ||||||||||||||
The three headings below enable schools to demonstrate how they are using the pupil premium to improve classroom pedagogy, provide targeted support and support whole school strategies. | |||||||||||||||
i. Quality of teaching for all | |||||||||||||||
Desired outcome | Chosen action / approach | What is the evidence and rationale for this choice? | How will you ensure it is implemented well? | Staff lead | When will you review implementation? | ||||||||||
Outcome A
To strengthen approaches to teaching and learning across the school which will accelerate pupil progress
|
Appraisal for 2018/19 clearly identifies pupils who must achieve EXS or GDS based on EYFS or KS1 data
Quality CPD for staff |
By identifying children that are not on track to achieve EXS or GDS teachers can ensure that high quality interventions are used to target those pupils.
Identifying children that have the potential to reach GDS will ensure that better than expected progress can be made.
