Religious Education

Religious Education takes the form of themes and cross curricular topics. A daily act of worship takes place in accordance with the Education Reform Act 1988. This is wholly or mainly of a Christian character. Parents have the right under the act to withdraw their child form the daily act of worship. Please inform us in writing. Your child will be given work and supervised during this time.

Complaints Procedure

Parents should always in the first instance approach their child's class teacher with any complaint, though some matters may eventually need to be resolved by the Year Leader, Leadership Team or Headteacher.

Pupil Premium

Use of Pupil Premium 2011/2012

Background

Schools are free to spend the Pupil Premium as they see fit. However we will be held accountable for how we have used the additional funding to support pupils from low-income families. From September 2012, we are required to publish online information about how we have used the Premium. This will ensure that parents and others are made fully aware of the attainment of pupils covered by the Premium and the extra support that they receive.

Our School

In 2011-12 Cleves School received £11,224 for Pupil Premium. Other funding was added to this to ensure that we could support all of our most disadvantaged and vulnerable pupils.

Analysis of our results shows that the children for whom the Pupil Premium is provided made better progress than other FSM children nationally in the 2010/2011 Academic year. This shows we use the additional funding effectively.

The following is a breakdown of the additional support given to those in need.

Activities selected	What this does?	Targeted Pupils	Cost
1. One to one tuition	During years 4 and 5 children who are identified as not making expected progress and meet the criteria outlined in the 1:1 documentation are offered regular one to one sessions for one hour per week for 10 weeks. The children are identified through careful tracking and analysis of the data looking at current as well as prior attainment. Intervention is carefully planned in both maths and literacy to meet the needs of the individual children. Whole school objectives are considered.	Year 4 and 5	£9,000
2. Trips, visits & special weeks	This enables all children to be included in Residential Trips, Day Trips, Special weeks and other events. These enrich and are an important part of the curriculum for all children and without full parental financial support would not happen.	Year 3,4,5 & 6	Approx. £4,000

During the programme the children will revisit literacy objectives from year 2 and year 3. Identification of children will be against age related expectations. These children will attend the Quest programme for two hours a week over the course of the year if required.	Year 3	£1,800

Use of Pupil Premium 2012/13

Background

The Pupil Premium is allocated to children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) in both mainstream and non-mainstream settings and children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months. In 2012-13 this will also include pupils eligible for FSM at any point in the last six years (known as the Ever 6 FSM measure).

Our School

In 2012-13 Cleves received £26,166 for Pupil Premium. Other funding was added to this to ensure that we could support all of our most disadvantaged and vulnerable pupils.

Analysis of our results shows that the majority of children in the school for whom the Pupil Premium is provided are making better progress than other FSM children nationally. This shows we use the additional funding effectively.

Many pupils benefitted from this funding
