National and local data consistently show a disparity in educational outcomes between Pupil Premium and non-Pupil Premium students. At KS3, this gap becomes particularly critical as students transition to secondary education, laying the foundation for success at GCSE level. Without targeted intervention, PP students often face barriers that hinder their progress, including:
* Lower literacy and numeracy levels upon entry.
* Reduced access to enrichment opportunities.
* Lower self-esteem and confidence.
* Socioeconomic challenges that affect attendance and engagement.
The introduction of a KS3 Intervention Assistant would directly target these barriers, providing dedicated support to close the gap early in students' secondary education journey.
