                            Focusing on professional development

                                •   Re-introduce Lesson Study approach.

High quality one to one and small group tuition

    •   Develop a long-term strategy for staff training closely linked to the SDP.
    •   Use data from assessments to measure the impact of interventions.
    •   Investigate school-based tutor option.

Teaching assistants and targeted support

    •   Ensure all staff are familiar with SHINE interventions and agree on how they
        should be used across the school.
    •   Where SHINE cannot be used to deliver interventions, use other effective,
        targeted interventions (e.g. Rapid Phonics or Dynamo Maths)

Academic tutoring

    •   Ensure that we sustain the impact of the tutoring through QFT and pupil
        tracking once children finish their cycle.
    •   Using data, decide upon which pupils will benefit most from the next cycle of
        the NTP. Focus on maths.

Questions to consider when planning to support pupils with SEND.

    •   Continue to identify evidence-based interventions that are proven to be
        effective.

Wider strategies relate to the most significant non-academic barriers to success in
school, including attendance, behaviour and social and emotional support.

Supporting pupils’ social, emotional and behavioural needs

Wider strategies      •   Staff to deliver key units from the PSHE SoW (or other PSHE topics if more
                          appropriate) in the autumn term.
                      •   Maintain a sense of community for the whole school through assemblies.

                   Communicating with and supporting parents

                      •   Promote the Scholar Pack parent app and text messaging service.
