 STRATEGY STATEMENT

             o   To raise the in-school attainment for reading of both disadvantaged pupils and
                 their peers.
             o   To increase self-esteem and confidence in students and to provide the strategies
                 to self-regulate and overcome barriers to learning.
             o   To encourage all students to identify ways in which to improve their own well-
                 being.

Barriers to learning
 BARRIERS TO FUTURE ATTAINMENT

 Academic barriers:

 A        Students are generally below key stage expectations for reading.

 B        Low self-esteem and self-confidence is an issue for many students.

                                                2
BARRIERS TO FUTURE ATTAINMENT

C        Communication difficulties; non-verbal students/ those with limited language and
         students with social communication difficulties.

D        Behavioural issues are diverse and significant amongst PP students and self-regulation
         is key to overcoming barriers to learning.

E        Students generally do not recognise how they can improve their own physical health and
         well-being through specific activities.

ADDITIONAL BARRIERS

External barriers

F       Attendance rates for some students are reduced which causes them to make less
        progress.

G       Many families live geographically some distance from the school so interaction with
        families can be limited.

H       Lack of enrichment activities for some students at home.

I       Actions of some families not fully fostering independence in their child.
