Evaluation- Exam Performance and Exam Analysis 2016 We utilised a wide range of strategies at Harris during the 2015-16 academic year to close the gap between Pupil Premium students and non-pp. To accelerate learning and attainment we used the PP funding in keys areas such as enrichment, intervention within the Basics programme, metacognition, peer mentoring, external tutoring, counselling, wellbeing support, attendance, pastoral and behaviour support. The external Yr11 exam results achieved a 27.9% A*-C English and Maths gap this summer, and had a gap of 0.48 on Progress 8. English and Maths both unfortunately widened compared to national average but narrowed on internal progress on old 3 LOP measure; Maths 28% gap and English 14%.
