Pupil Premium Statement 2019-2020

Intention

PUPIL PREMIUM GRANT: PRINCIPLES FOR USE Eden Park High School will use PPG to assist in narrowing the attainment gap between students from disadvantaged backgrounds. By focusing on students who are, or have been, entitled to Free School Meals the PPG can be seen to focus on an economic measure to define educational disadvantage. Additionally, PPG was broadened to include entitlement for children who are looked after and children with parent(s) in the Armed Forces. The fact of relatively lower attainment from these groups of students, in a national context, is well established in available data. For example 7,000 of the brightest children, mainly from poorer backgrounds were in the top 10% nationally at 11, but not in the top 25% at GCSE. At Eden Park High School we fully recognise that not all students who are entitled to PPG are necessarily educationally disadvantaged. We also recognise that not all students who are not entitled to PPG, do not have an educational disadvantage. Hence, Eden Park High School reserves the right to apply PPG funded strategies to any student or groups of students the school has legitimately identified as educationally disadvantaged due to any form of socially generated disadvantage. However, there will be a clear focus on those students formally identified as being entitled to PPG. Our desired impact from PPG use will be:

• Through the use of a wide variety of strategies differences amongst groups of students that exist in educational attainment will be diminished. • Continually improving learning and teaching is the key strategy to narrow gaps and improve attainment. • Integrated spending and provision ensuring that all PPG students receive all relevant opportunities to meet their needs.

The leadership team will manage and fully support our ethos that all students are given the same life chances. The School’s Governing Body will be fully informed and challenge the school on the strategies adopted and their impact on student attainment and engagement with education. When considering strategies to ‘narrow the gap’, Eden Park High School will work within three broad focus areas:

- Academic

- Well Being

- Enrichment and Engagement

The strategies may vary from time of publication to meet the identified needs of learners that become apparent during the course of the academic year.

Implementation

The progress of Pupil Premium students is monitored throughout the year through the creation of achievement and progress reports for each year group. These reports assist in identify if gaps in progress are present and in which curriculum areas these gaps are appearing in. The achievement and progress reports combine pastoral data along with attainment data, helping to identify the appropriate form of intervention.

The school recognises that deprivation can impact on students in a variety of ways. With this in mind the school implements a staged system of intervention for students who require additional support.

Stage 1 All students who are classified as Pupil Premium will receive access to the interventions listed below in this document.

Stage 2 Students who demonstrate a moderate level of underachievement or disengagement within their education. Indicators for this include;

• Attendance that is below 95% • Concerns over punctuality to school (averaging 1 late per fortnight) • High levels of behaviour logs in comparison to achievement points • Attainment in subject areas being below the expected level based on prior attainment at key stage 2

Stage 3 Students who are significant risk of not completing their education or significantly underachieving. Indicators for this stage include;

• Attendance that is below 90% • Concerns over punctuality to school (late on a weekly basis) • High levels of behaviour logs in comparison to achievement points • Has received a fixed term exclusion and at risk of permanent exclusion • Attainment in subject areas is significantly below the expected level based on prior attainment at key stage 2 (approximately -0.8 progress score)

Students on stage 3 will have a key member of staff assigned to them to support them with improving their overall engagement and academic progress. This key member of staff will be assigned based on the need of the individual student. This member of staff will hold meetings with the students and the parents/carers of the students to identify individual blocks to learning and how to overcome these obstacles. Based on these meetings individual requests for use of pupil premium grant money can be made to the Headteacher using the form (attached in appendix A of this document).

Barriers to future attainment (for pupils eligible for PP) Following data analysis, observations, learning walks and consultation with students, parents, carers and teachers the school has identified the areas below as being a priority for improving outcomes of students identified as PP. In-school barriers A. Some PP children enter school at lower starting points B. Speech, language, vocabulary and comprehension skills are lower for some pupils eligible for PP compared to other pupils C. Aspiration, engagement and motivation towards education D. Completion of home-learning activities and quality of work provided External barriers E. Circumstances in the home may have an impact on the pupil’s emotional wellbeing in school. F. Limited take up of extra-curricular music lessons through lack of parental encouragement; lack of money; possibility of low

aspirations; lack of exposure to music outside of school G. Limited take up of after school clubs through lack of parental encouragement; lack of money H. Structure and support at home to complete home-learning activities Desired Outcomes and how they will be measured A. Gaps identified quickly and students placed into early intervention.

Regular monitoring of data and re-assessed when required. Gaps closed for all PP students.

B. Concerns with speech, language, vocabulary and comprehension skills identified early. All teachers to be aware of students identified and lessons differentiated accordingly. Additional intervention support given if/when required. Students monitored through regular progress meetings. Students identified as PP make rapid progress, demonstrated in end of academic year assessments.

C. Online behaviour for learning tool (classcharts) used to monitor student behaviour in lessons. Regular review of pastoral data along with attainment/progress data used to monitor student engagement.

Additional guidance provided in lead up to transition to year 10. Additional visits or workshops for PP students to develop aspirations. Achievement points, attendance and behaviour logs for PP students to be in-line with or higher than non-PP students

D. Improved access to ICT facilities during extended learning. Home-learning provided more personalised to students. Quality of work produced during extended learning to be improved. All students complete home-learning on time and to a high standard.

E. Increased provision within pastoral team, including increased leadership, additional support opportunities and use of new facilities. Any issues that are impacting on a child’s wellbeing are identified quickly and the appropriate support put in place.

F. More PP children attend additional instrument or singing lessons, leading to a greater uptake of PP students in the music extra-curricular programme.

G. Continued provision of enrichment as part of the school timetable. A wider curriculum to be offered as part of enrichment as the school continues to grow. Students continue to build on the awards they have already earnt in previous academic years.

H. Continued provision of extended school day which enables students to complete home-learning tasks within school. Enhanced provision through making use of ICT facilities and timetabling of extended learning sessions. Use of ClassCharts (online system) to organise the work students complete during the session and make the work more personalised for students.

• Students entitled to PPG may struggle to afford certain specialist equipment. Therefore, faculties will factor this in and have these available to borrow throughout the lesson to prevent any barrier to learning. Examples can include basic equipment such as a pen or pencil but more complex such as calculators, compasses and protractors.

understanding of the lesson and high expectations in regards to presentation.

• By early

identification of key groups, comparisons can be made after each assessment cycle, therefore allowing any gaps to be closed through in lesson intervention.

• Teachers should

justify at the start of each lesson as to why they are learning about the specific topic/content. Through this, teachers can provide high aspirations for all students and encourage students to think more about their future career.

• Through the use

the gaps of PPG students can be closed.

Students with gaps are identified earlier and appropriate support is put in place to close gaps.

Students are identified through SAT/ CAT scores, school data as well as recommendations from the English Department in terms of low-level Literacy. Once we have the names, students are split into small groups and have a Literacy session timetabled into their week. They will come out of their Modern Foreign Language and will work on a themed project (To do with that language) Where they will review basic level Literacy and build up their skill set.

Taking students out of their Language lessons creates a good amount of time to work with these students. We believe that if they are struggling in Literacy in English, it is unlikely that they are going to access a foreign language effectively.

Students are tested at the beginning and end of the 6 week period to measure impact and show progress in their Literacy skills. If they improve to the required level, they will be integrated back into MFL. If not, a review will take place and they will be placed on another half-terms’ programme.

All students have access to enrichment opportunities with tangible results.

Enrichment has been timetabled into the school day. Every option has a tangible result ranging from nationally recognised awards and certificates to new experiences and trips. All enrichment options incur no fee or additional costing for students.

No fees for students allow all students of all backgrounds to access the same opportunities. PP students tend to have a lower uptake of formal out of school activities so the Enrichment programme offers a cost-free option embedded into the school day with potential social benefits as well as improving academic development.

Students from a high attaining background who are PP have high aspirations

Future Aspirations – Students visiting universities and employers within work place settings as well as receiving careers guidance in school from external organisations. Students and their parents will be provided with information in advance of universities which offer courses related to their main interest and will enable them to select which from the list of the universities they would mostly like to visit.

Students are gaining an insight in to what university life is like from a first hand experience. Students can learn about the different courses on offer in various universities and compare them to identify from an earlier stage which of these they feel meets their requirements for future study. Students will have a sense of direction and this should increase their motivation in their academic performance in school.

Create and promote programme of university and careers visits in line with CEIAG objectives. Use existing university links to arrange university visits or in-school visits. Make new links with a range of universities both in and outside of London – all types of universities including Russell Group and Oxbridge universities. Make links with outside organisations in different career fields that offer school programmes, classroom sessions and workplace visits.
