3. Barriers to future attainment (for pupils eligible for PP, including high ability)

In school barriers

·         Specific learning difficulties, particularly dyslexia have had a negative impact on writing achievement. The spelling expectation is now higher.

·         Some pupils have speech and language issues.

·         Some pupils have specific difficulty with maths.

·         In the 2017/18 Y6 cohort there was one pupil on Pupil Premium who had special educational needs. He had dyslexia and speech and language issues, which severely affected his learning, particularly in writing and maths.

External barriers

·         The attendance of some pupil premium pupils has been low but not persistently so. This has had a negative impact on achievement. ·         Some pupils don’t have sufficient support at home.
