Part A: Pupil premium strategy plan
Statement of intent
Following the disruption children have suffered as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, schools have received an additional amount of money to provide catch-up support for those pupils that require it. We also receive pupil premium funding which should be used to support disadvantaged pupils. Disadvantaged pupils have suffered the greatest harm to their education through the pandemic. This is evident within our school community. As such, both the pupil premium grant and recovery premium will be used to help disadvantaged pupils to make excellent progress in their learning by building solid foundations in the key areas of reading, writing and maths. At Glendale Infant School, in order to utilise this additional funding in the best possible way, we have considered closely the research and advice put forward by the EEF and used timely assessments of both children’s academic and personal development needs to inform our decisions. The table below outlines our intentional spend with a rationale accompanying each decision. |
Challenges
This details the key challenges to achievement that we have identified among our disadvantaged pupils.
Challenge number | Detail of challenge |
1 | Emotional intelligence for some Pupil Premium children is underdeveloped. |
2 | Baseline data suggests that Pupil Premium children joining Glendale in Reception are not academically as developed as non PPG pupils. They need to make accelerated progress to reach national expectations at the end of year 2. |
3 | The spoken word and oracy for many Pupil Premium children is underdeveloped and grammatically incorrect. |
4 | Some Pupil Premium children are weak in Cultural Capital. They lack experience and overall knowledge. |
5 | Low attendance for some Pupil Premium children is a continuing cause for concern. |
6 | A number of Pupil Premium families have low aspirations and little engagement with school therefore would benefit from external help and support. |
Intended outcomes
This explains the outcomes we are aiming for by the end of our current strategy plan, and how we will measure whether they have been achieved.
Intended outcome | Success criteria |
Excellent teaching leads to excellent progress in learning for all pupils. | All teaching is, at least, good and some is outstanding. |
All pupils make excellent progress from their unique starting points. | All groups of pupils make excellent progress in their learning. |
All children make good progress in social, emotional aspects of learning. | Children’s social and emotional development progresses at the expected rate and in accordance with each child’s age. Children develop the social and emotional skills necessary to become effective learners. |
Activity in this academic year
This details how we intend to spend our pupil premium (and recovery premium funding) this academic year to address the challenges listed above.
Teaching (for example, CPD, recruitment and retention)
Budgeted cost: £ 7263.11
Activity | Evidence that supports this approach | Challenge number(s) addressed |
Thrive training for our wellbeing/learning mentor | EEF research - On average, SEL interventions have an identifiable and valuable impact on attitudes to learning and social relationships in school. They also have an average overall impact of four months' additional progress on attainment. | 1 5 6 |
RWI training for all staff |
| 2 3 |
Targeted academic support (for example, tutoring, one-to-one support structured interventions)
Budgeted cost: £ 60569.50
Activity | Evidence that supports this approach | Challenge number(s) addressed |
One to one/small group tuition After school reading club (1:1 tutoring)
1:1 tutoring (RWI)
| EEF evidence: High quality teaching is supported by, and inextricably bound to, targeted academic support. Good assessment will reveal that some pupils have lost learning, misunderstood content, or made gains in their knowledge, during the extended period of Covid-19 partial school closures. This may require targeted one to one or small group tuition to address gaps. There is extensive evidence supporting the impact of high-quality 1:1 and small group tuition as a catch-up strategy.’

Intervention programmes Class-based interventions
Deliver Wellcomm Sp & Lang intervention programme in EYFS.
NELI ((Nuffield Early Language Intervention Programme) | Generally, the use of TAs to deliver high quality interventions, which complement the work of the teacher, is a ‘best bet’ and could be a powerful way of mitigating any impacts of time away from school and see positive gains for pupils. We suggest schools should adopt one or two well-chosen, and well-implemented, TA-led interventions, judiciously used to complement and extend class-based teaching and learning.
In order to support pupils who have fallen the behind furthest, structured interventions, which may also be delivered one to one or in small groups, are likely to be necessary.
Sessions are often brief (15-45 mins), occur regularly (e.g. 3-5 times per week) and are maintained over a sustained period of time (e.g. 8-20 weeks). Staff receive extensive training from experienced trainers or teachers.

Summary of the main barriers to educational achievement faced by Pupil Premium Pupils
In-school barriers for pupils are mainly social, emotional and mental health. Also, social interaction, behaviour issues relating to SEND, low self-esteem and confidence.
External barriers include attendance and family personal circumstances.
The school will measure the impact of Pupil Premium funding by monitoring and reviewing progress and achievements at termly pupil progress meetings; outcomes from pastoral and nurture provision; reports from external agencies; outcomes from single assessments and early help meetings; pupils and parents voice; participation in clubs, extra-curricular activities and wider opportunities; number of children accessing music tuition and attendance data.
