Measuring the impact of Pupil Premium spending:
The impact of the pupil premium spending will be measured through comparison of progress and outcomes for Y11
pupils in the 2017-18 GCSE exams with progress and outcomes in previous years. At each of the 6 assessment points
throughout the academic year, the progress being made by disadvantaged pupils is measured against that of their
non-disadvantaged peers and interventions are implemented in any areas where they are required.
The wider impact of Pupil Premium spending will also be measured through comparing the progress and attainment
of Y7-10 pupils in all subject areas, but particularly English, maths and science.
A full ASDTi Classroom Climate survey of all pupils will be taken in the summer term. This will be compared to the
previous years’ survey results. Responses from pupils in receipt of Pupil Premium will be compared to those from
non-disadvantaged pupils.
