Barriers to learning in our schools. Every child is different, and so are their circumstances, but some common barriers to learning for pupils who are Pupil Premium in our schools include:
- The amount of support that is available at home.
- Language and communication skills.
- A lack of confidence
- Behavioural and emotional difficulties/needs
- Complex family situations that affect how well a child flourishes. This can sometimes be for a short period of time but can also be long running and stressful for the child.
- Aspirations, including attendance.
