pupil premium record keeping

[skippy]

Hi I am going round in circle trying to find a way to record and monitor our pupil premium children and how we spend the money allocated. Please could anyone direct me to a site or share how they do it please?

I am turning greyer by the hour!​

Hi there.

Have a look on the Early Education website, there are lots of helpful tips and proformas you can use or tweak. We recommend these rather than creating our own and a few settings have made little changes here and there but they do what they need to.

Many thanks for this

I noticed some key ideas of areas coming though such as CPD, Curriculum, Life experiences and home links. Are these specific areas to focus in on?

For example if I had a child who wanted to attend an additional session such as music and it was chargeable, I could use the money for this. Or a child that struggles with toilet training I could buy some resources or lump the money towards training needs for staff?

Just to clarify I need to identify children, the amount eligible, what the setting will do, what is the impact .....If that makes sense?!?

Yes that's about it. You can use the money for pretty much anything as long as you can show how it has made a difference for the children concerned. Be creative especially if there is nothing really obvious that the child needs.

Do you have a network in your area to share ideas with others?
