"Leaders are rigorous in their monitoring of the use of the pupil premium funding and the impact that this spending has on outcomes for disadvantaged students. They ensure that it is used to provide effective support for disadvantaged students and enables them to make the same excellent progress as others."

Impact
We carefully track the students who are eligible for Pupil Premium, Grade cards are produced at three points during the academic year and one full school report at the end pf the year. There are also various weekly meetings by the Heads of School and regular progress meetings. This allows the academy to evaluate the impact of expenditure in terms of:
Academic Year 2017 – 2018
Progress 8 |
Attainment 8 |
% Gaining grade 5 or above in Eng and Maths |
|
Cohort |
0.34 |
60.2 |
66% |
Disadvantaged (still to be confirmed) |
-0.2 |
51.43 |
46% |
Finally, it is important to note that whilst this information focuses specifically on the Pupil Premium cohort, we do support all of our students on an individualised basis. We aim to offer a personalised approach at all times to ensure successful outcomes for all our students.
