5. Long Term Plan (3-year plan)

2019-2022

• In reviewing previous years impact, we are looking to continue prioritising the desired outcomes in section 4 for the next three years.
• Although this will be kept under review, it was envisaged that similar expenditure focus will continue to deliver this.
• The reason for this decision is the positive impact this approach has had on pupil outcomes over time including in 2018-19 where our disadvantaged pupils have been in line with or outperformed non-disadvantaged pupils nationally.
• This is also evidenced by the fact the school has been awarded London School’s for Success status 2 years out of the last 3 because of the effectiveness of impact on outcomes for pupils in receipt of pupil premium, making it one of the top 8% of London schools in this area.
• It is to be noted that PP income has been in decline in recent years due to changes in eligibility criteria, although for 2019-20 there is a slight increase.

COVID IMPACT

• The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related school site closures remains to be seen but is likely to be considerable.
•  The concern is that pupils in receipt of PP may be further disadvantaged for several reasons including: access to technology to access remote learning, housing conditions, less structured learning environment, capacity for family support.
• As a result, the plan for this academic year has only been followed from September to end of March.
• Pupils in receipt of pupil premium have been prioritised for target return groups as government guidance allows, we have also ensured hand delivery of study books to individual homes to ensure they are received and this has been supported by individual weekly care calls.
• Going forward much depends on what restrictions are in place from start of academic year 2020. If all children are back on site, then the current plan can be maintained but may need additional tuition / focus groups (some of which have already been factored into staff deployment for next year)
• If blended learning continues, an alternative approach may be needed including support with access to technology, target study groups, personalised education plans.
• It is also to be noted that is likely the number of children in receipt of pupil premium will considerably grow as those eligible for FSM has increased during this period. It remains to be seen if therefore the government continue to fund PP at the current levels.
