The Pupil Premium Grant provides funding for two policies:
The Government document ‘Pupil premium 2017 to 2018: conditions of grant’ (PP conditions of grant 2017-18 gives the following information on eligibility for the Pupil Premium grant:

Copy of PPG allocation for April 2016 – March 2017:
This year we have already identified contributions towards school uniform purchases, reading books, subsidised school trips and residential activities, music tuition and free school milk. The impact of this is that all of our pupils feel fully engaged and part of the school and can acess a wide range of activities and experiences. Our Pupil Premium pupils continue to make good progress academically and generally have good attendance in school. The number of pupil premium children attending after school clubs or creative activities (such as clarinet lessons or cooking) is very high. We understand that joining in with residential activities and wearing the correct uniform are all part of developing a sense of belonging and team working. We also recognise that the provision of quality teaching and resources is key in raising aspirations and standards. The school has used pupil premium money to train TAs and to employ support staff to work with our most vulnerable children.
At Barningham CEVC Primary School we provide a creative and interesting curriculum, which we hope inspires all of our pupils and takes into account their diverse and individual needs. We ensure that all Pupil Premium Grant funding is used effectively to support each child and raise standards. Progress is monitored and targeted throughout the year by the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and governors to monitor pupils’ achievements.
Extended School Support
Measuring the impact of PPG spending
The school endeavours to find creative approaches to meet the needs of some vulnerable pupils, such as creating better access to target setting and Learning Plans.
We felt that the school “Went above and beyond to do everything to make my son feel settled. The new teacher also got to know him well beforehand.” Comment from PP parent.
All children are active in Sports’ Day and the inter-school activities.

How it is making a difference to the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and service children:
So far, the school has purchased reading books; funded after school clubs places; funded trips places; purchased intervention resources; music tuition; provision of school uniform; TA and specialist 1:1 teaching support. As a school we celebrate the different experiences and backgrounds of each child. We work closely with the staff at RAF Honington and are aware of the impact of one or both parents being involved in active engagements and postings.
At Barningham CEVC, we ensure that all funding has a positive impact on raising standards and progress for all of our children. We recognise that this can be achieved through:
Our Ever 6 FSM and Service Children range in ability and age, and we meet these different needs by providing challenge at all levels. Some are on our Able, Gifted and Talented Register and others on our Special Educational Needs Register. We want our pupils to be active and positive learners, so we provide a curriculum which is balanced and sensitive to the different learning styles of individual children. We understand that they have individual requirements which should be tailored to suit: for example, nurture groups provide social skills and emotional development; access to sporting and creative clubs provides opportunities to try activities not usually available. Collectively, we hope that these help each child to develop as confident members of our school community. Academic progress is carefully monitored by staff and governors, and parents are kept informed through reports, Parent Evenings, home-school books and informal discussions during the academic year.
The children are making good progress and the different intervention groups have targeted areas for development. These are identified by class teachers on the Termly Provision Maps and half-termly Pupil Progress Meetings discussions.
