Evaluate the impact of interventions

Pupils with SEND

Evaluating the support you provide pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is part of the graduated approach. You should gather evidence of the impact of any additional or different provision, and use this to decide whether to continue, adapt or stop it.

This is set out in paragraphs 6.54, 6.72 and 6.73 of the SEND Code of Practice.

Pupil premium-funded interventions

If your pupil premium allocation is based on more than 5 eligible pupils, you must report the impact of the invervention in your annual strategy statement.

Using the inclusive mainstream fund for interventions

If the intervention is funded by the inclusive mainstream fund, you must cover it in your inclusion strategy, alongside the barriers it addresses and its cost.

This evidence also feeds into what you report to governors and show Ofsted inspectors.

Be clear on the desired outcome of each intervention
