Action PlanSept 2013 V2

Analysis and challenge toolkit for school leaders: primary

On the following pages are modified versions of the tables used by inspectors during the Pupil Premium survey. Schools could use these to inform discussions between school leaders and governors, and help to shape future strategic planning for the use of the Pupil Premium funding. The tools could also be used to aid self-evaluation and may help with preparing for a section 5 or section 8 inspection. The tables can be adapted for future use by changing the dates.They could also be adapted to focus on achievement gaps for any other groups in the school.

Data for the pupil outcomes table for Year 6 should be taken from RAISEonline.
Data for other year groups should be available from the school’s own tracking of pupils’ attainment and progress.

Reflective questions

To what extent are the strengths and priorities suggested by this data clearly evident in the school’s self-evaluation and improvement plans? If any are missing, outline them below and add them to your improvement plan or use the separate planning and evaluation outline on page 12.
Which strengths are not reflected in your self-evaluation?
Read write inc has had a big impact on attainment in KS1.The implementation of the scheme has been labour intensive to ensure effectiveness. Will continue with this 2013/14
3rd teacher in Y6 has had positive impact on attainment in reading and writing. Progress of FSM exceeds progress of NFSM in reading and in maths. 2012/13 – Will continue with this 2013/14
Additional teacher in Y5 has helped close the gap which has reduced gap - see table above.
Whichpriorities are not reflected in your school improvement plans?
The evaluation of this document will inform the SDP 2014-2015.

Self-review questions for Governing Bodies

Governors’ knowledge and awareness

  1. Have leaders and governors considered research and reports about what works to inform their decisions about how to spend the Pupil Premium?
  2. Do governors know how much money is allocated to the school for the Pupil Premium? Is this identified in the school’s budget planning?
  3. Is there a clearly understood and shared rationale for how this money is spent and what it should achieve? Is this communicated to all stakeholders including parents?
  4. Do governors know how the school spends this money? What improvements hasthe allocation brought about? How is this measured and reported to governors and parents via the school’s website (a new requirement)?
  5. If this funding is combined with other resources, can governors isolate and check on the impact of the funding and ascertain the difference it is making?
  6. Do governors know whether leaders and managers are checking that the actions are working and are of suitable quality?

Leaders and managers’ actions

  1. Do the school’s improvement/action plans identify whether there are any issues in the performance of pupils who are eligible for the Pupil Premium?
  2. Do the actions noted for improving outcomes for Pupil Premium pupils:

give details of how the resources are to be allocated?

give an overview of the actions to be taken?

give a summary of the expected outcomes?

identify ways of monitoring the effectiveness of these actions as they are ongoing and note who will be responsible for ensuring that this information is passed to governors?

explain what will be evaluated at the end of the action and what measures of success will be applied?

  1. Is the leader responsible for this area of the school’s work identified?
  2. How do governors keep an ongoing check on these actions and ask pertinent questions about progress ahead of any summary evaluations?
  3. Are the progress and outcomes of eligible pupils identified and analysed by the school’s tracking systems? Is this information reported to governors in a way that enables them to see clearly whether the gap in the performance of eligible pupils and other pupils is closing?

Pupils’ progress and attainment

  1. Does the summary report of RAISEonline show that there are any gaps in performance between pupils who are eligible for free school meals and those who are not at the end of key stages? (Look at the tables on the previous pages of this document for some indicators to consider)
  1. Do the school’s systems enable governors to have a clear picture of the progress and attainment of pupils who are eligible for the Pupil Premiumin all year groups across the school, not just those at the end of key stages?
  2. If there are gaps in the attainment of pupils who are eligible for the Pupil Premium and those who are not, are eligible pupils making accelerated progress – are they progressing faster than the expected rate – in order to allow the gaps to close? Even if all pupils make expected progress this will not necessarily make up for previous underperformance.
  3. Is the school tracking the attendance, punctuality and behaviour (particularly exclusions) of this group and taking action to address any differences?

Overall, will governors know and be able to intervene quickly if outcomes are not improving in the way that they want them to?
