PUPIL PREMIUM STATEMENT

Pupil Premium is additional government funding for pupils who are either looked after children or perceived to come from disadvantaged backgrounds and therefore qualify for Free School Meals. This funding is then used to boost the learning of pupils so that the gap between learners is narrowed and all pupils are then able to reach their full potential.

At Muntham House School we aim to narrow the attainment gap between pupils so that they can achieve their full potential, particularly in English and Mathematics. Pupil Premium is also used to help pupils fully participate in chosen or enrichment activities and receive the additional support which they require.

Some Pupil Premium funding has been spent on one to one sessions for individual pupils to boost their attainment. This method is an effective way to improve attainment of our most disadvantaged pupils. Pupils who received Pupil Premium funding will have benefited from the following additional provisions:

• Numeracy 1-1 tutoring
• Literacy 1-1 tutoring
• Science 1-1 tutoring
• Music Lessons
• Music Equipment
• Drama Equipment
• A Range of Therapeutic Input
• Access to Specialist Resources
• Outdoor Classroom
• Ipads or Laptops to promote independent study
• Revision Guides and Aids
• Curriculum Enrichment Trips
• Outdoor Education

All of our Key Stage 4 pupils who received Pupil Premium funding achieved high levels of progress in Literacy and Numeracy, which exceeded expectations. All Pupil Premium pupils achieved a 100% rate for their GCSE examinations.
