The pupil premium is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils of all abilities and to close the gaps between them and their peers.

​

We have high aspirations for all the children in our school community and believe that all children should be given the opportunity to reach their full potential. We seek, as a school community, to provide personalised learning opportunities and targeted support to allow every child to flourish.

 

Our priorities at Kingswear Primary School are:

• To narrow the gap for those pupils not on track to achieve the expected standard at the end of KS2.

• To ensure early identification of additional needs and to promote early intervention programmes.

• To ensure that there is extra adult support to facilitate emotional and social development.

• To use academic research (Sutton Trust report, Carol Dweck, John Hattie) to make informed choices about the most suitable intervention programmes to use with our children to ensure we are promoting accelerated learning.

 

This provision will include:

• Facilitating pupils’ access to education.

• Facilitating pupils’ access to the curriculum.

• Additional teaching and learning opportunities.

• Alternative support and intervention, arranged through a pupil’s parents, where funds are available after securing the school’s own programme.

• Provision of extra-curricular learning.

• Provision for more able pupils.
