Barriers to future attainment Academic barriers (issues to be addressed in school, such as poor literacy skills) A Impact of COVID 19 lockdown and continued issues with attendance due to SI and lockdowns – this will have impacted all pupils at all levels and will lead to lower outcomes B Low Literacy and Numeracy skills on entry leads to lower outcomes C Low levels of aspiration and poor attitude to learning leads to lower outcomes Additional barriers (including issues which also require action outside school, such as low attendance rates) D High numbers of PP pupils in year 11 – 60% - plus a high number of FSM since Primary education means pupils have not had access to that of others 4.
