Pupils in Years 5, 7 and 10 made significantly better progress in Maths than pupils with SEND nationally. Pupils at School Action Plus, and those with HI, VI, BESD and SPLD, made more progress than other pupils in the cohort. Males made more progress in Maths than females, and the reverse was true for English. Overall, more progress was made in English than in Maths

4. MMU – Interim Report May 2011 cont...... Data is being put to a variety of uses to inform provision and promote positive outcomes The conversations  a more holistic view of pupils,  a culture shift in parental engagement, and  have been effective in building a genuine partnership. Parents feel more included in the process of their children’s education, more empowered. There have also been cases of improved pupil attendance, attributable to a refocus on the pupil themselves and strategies devised to promote enjoyment of school.
