Below are details of how we spent our Pupil Premium funding and also the impact it had.
All of our pupils are important to us whether they are in receipt of Pupil Premium funding or not. Both our quantitative and qualitative data over time shows that irrespective of disability, ethnicity, sex or deprivation, all of our children make at least expected progress because we have very high aspirations and set challenging targets for all.
We strive to take advantage of every opportunity to broaden our curriculum, to enrich our approaches, to celebrate our talents, to nurture and set our children on the right pathways for future learning. We want our children to have skills for life, to learn how to learn, to develop their own voice, and to use their own voice. We want them to become confident contributors to society, to be valued, respected and accepted, to be listened to and understood. Therefore, we have carefully considered how best to use our Pupil Premium funding to ensure that we create an appropriate learning environment and increase our pupils’ achievement, ensure that our children are healthy, fit and ‘well rounded’ individuals in all areas of their development including their mental health. We want to ensure that the latest technologies and evidence based approaches are employed to enable our pupils to access the curriculum and express themselves, ensure our pupils have the confidence and necessary skills to engage socially in a range of contexts and ensure that we raise our children’s aspirations and show them the world we live in through residential and out of school experiences.
Likewise, we are consciously working with our staff and parents to ensure we have the most skilled workforce through CPD and parental workshops and support.
The school has been allocated Pupil Premium funding according to how many learners have Free School Meals including Ever 6, or the children of service personnel. The income for 2021-2022 up to April is £160000.
Total pupils who attract Pupil Premium: 131 – 56%
Pupils who are looked after or previously looked after by the Local Authority have an individual Pupil Premium Plus Plan.
All pupils at Evergreen have an Education Health and Care Plan. Pupils have a wide range of barriers to their learning including moderate, severe and profound and multiple learning difficulties, communication and interaction difficulties, Autism Spectrum Conditions, behavioural difficulties and physical difficulties.
The plan will be reviewed in April 2021 when the new pupil premium is agreed.

Barriers: from discussions with parents during welfare calls many of them said they were finding it difficult to engage their children in home schooling activities. The learning characteristics of the vast majority of our children lead to them requiring hands on, engaging and practical learning activities. A highly personalised approach to supporting pupils learning is necessary to ensure learning takes place not only at school but also at home. |
