Equalities & Additional Intervention

We believe that all children should be equally valued at our Academy. We will strive to eliminate prejudice and discrimination, and to develop an environment where all children can flourish and feel safe. We have a rage of agreed policies.

Harris Primary Academy Philip Lane is committed to inclusion and part of the Academy’s strategic planning involves developing cultures, policies and practices that include all learners. We aim to engender a sense of community and belonging, and to offer new opportunities to learners who may have experienced previous difficulties. This does not mean that we will treat all learners in the same way, but that we will respond to learners in ways that take in to account their varied life experiences and needs.

We believe that educational inclusion is about equal opportunities for all learners, whatever their age, gender, demographic group, ethnicity, additional need, attainment and background. We pay particular attention to the provision for and the achievement of different groups of learners:

  • Students from families that are financially disadvantaged (PP - Pupil Premium)
  • Students who arrive with below nationally expected ability in any area (LAPs)
  • Boys or Girls
  • Students from minority faiths, ethnicities, travellers, asylum seekers, refugees
  • Students who have English as an additional language (EAL)
  • Students who have Special Educational Needs or a Disability (SEND)
  • Students who are Gifted and Talented (G&T)
  • Students who are Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transgender (LGBT)
  • Students who are Looked After Children (LAC)
  • Young carers, sick children, children from families under stress

Pupil Premium Spending and Impact

Pupil Premium is additional funding give to publicly funded schools and academies in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers.

Schools will also receive additional funding for each Looked After Child (LAC).

As a part of the Pupil Premium agreement, schools and academies are required to publish details online each year to show how the Pupil Premium Grant is being used. This information is provided in the documentation below.

PE & Sport Premium

In 2022-23 we received £19,420 of PE and sport premium funding. This money was used to increase opportunities for children to participate in sport beyond of the PE curriculum and address the inequalities of advantage. We were able to challenge children with the most potential by increasing competitive sport involvement. We continued to improve the competence and confidence of targeted children, and ensure sufficient good quality equipment and provision at the academy. 60% of our Year 6 achieved their 25m swimming award. 

In 2023-24 we received £20,600 of PE and sport premium funding. This will be used to continue to increase opportunities for children to participate in sports beyond the national curriculum by offering a range of clubs with a range of sporting opportunities. We will also continue to improve the confidence and competence of all children by offering good quality equipment and provision. Children will also have the opportunity to develop teamwork by increasing competitive sport involvement.
