Pupil Premium report 2015-16 and spending plan for 2016-17 Report to Governors

Written May 2015 and updated Feb 2016 St Richard’s Catholic College

Pupil Premium covers several groups of pupils for whom the college receives extra funding. They are pupils who have received free school meals (FSM) at any time within the last 6 years and they draw £935 per pupil; pupils who are in care (child looked after (CLA)) where the fund goes direct to College Central; pupils who are adopted (£1900), and pupils whose parents are in the armed services, this is £300 per pupil. The money comes to the college not to the pupil and is to be spent on closing any gaps in the progress of pupils in these groups compared to the progress of other pupils at the college.

*When comparing PP, they should be compared with NON FSM NATIONAL results. This is where the gap is.


In 2015 the attainment figures for PP are low and show a large gap with cohort (almost 40% for 5+A*-CEM). The attainment 8 figures also show a gap 46 compared to a cohort figure of 57.4 BUT this is also 5% below the national Attainment 8 figure. The progress measures for PP are also stark: in English 3 levels is below national 3 levels by 20% and for maths are 11% below national PP pupils for 3 levels of progress. The Progress 8 figures are far more positive with PP getting a score of +0.35 with the value added score very high (highest ever for PP pupils) at 1018 so we are getting our PP pupils to make more progress compared to others than ever before. (For detailed figures and comparisons, see Exam reports to Governors 2013 to 2015 and ISV report 2015.) On-going objectives:

To strengthen tracking of PP individual progress

KS3 and KS4 intervention work.

To raise aspirations for all. On-going actions: 1) Creation of an extra teaching group. 2) Strengthen reflections and action by pupils following up on feedback by teachers (purple

pens initiative) 3) Provision to raise literacy and numeracy levels. 4) Providing social and emotional support/interventions to improve attendance and behaviour . 5) Use of a Parent Support Advisor. 6) TAs employed to work extra hours to support reading. 7) Early morning, Saturday and after-school revision classes. 8) Personalised learning eg. use of external providers. 9) College placements to access alternative curriculum. 10) Extension of Prep Club to an extra evening per week and introduce Prep club plus for SEN

pupils. 11) One-to-one tuition for pupils at KS3. 12) Staff CPD in Literacy and Numeracy. 13) Travel to off-site college provision. 14) SEN/PP prep club provision. 15) Analysis of PP parental attendance at parents evenings.

In 2015 the impact was small on attainment despite more spending.

PP Progress 8 score was +0.35 which is positive.

The value added score was our highest ever at 1018.

Reading ages for pupils in Yrs 7 and 8 increased in some cases by more than a chronological year in 3

months of intensive work.

PP attendance at the Yr 7 settling in Parents’ evening in Nov 2015 had the highest attendance by PP

pupils ever (at 87%)
