Coronavirus (COVID-19) Catch-up Premium
The school has identified the following areas where the catch-up funding will be spent:
- Increasing the number of hours our school counsellor is in school
- Purchasing chrome books for students use in school
- Purchasing chrome books for students to use at home if they do not have a suitable device to access remote learning on
- Provision of dongles and sim cards for students who have no internet access at home
- Extra classes for maths and English for a small number of KS3 students
- ADHD specialist delivering workshops to staff and students
- 1:1 Catch up through the National Tutoring Programme
- Study groups in Year 11 and extra clinics to support revision
- T&L materials – mini whiteboards for all students
We will assess the effectiveness of this extra funding through tracking students throughout the year, comparing data from different tracking points. There will be softer data available through school counsellor reports / form tutor and head of year analysis of behaviour and mental health /meeting minutes where teaching and learning is discussed.
