Catch-Up Funding - Covid-19 global pandemic
What catch-up funding is for
The government announced £1 billion of funding to support children and young people to catch up lost time after school closure. This is especially important for the most vulnerable and disadvantaged backgrounds. This funding includes:
- a one-off universal £650 million catch up premium for the 2020 to 2021 academic year to ensure that schools have the support they need to help all pupils make up for lost teaching time
- a £350 million National Tutoring Programme to provide additional, targeted support for those children and young people who need the most help, which includes:
- a schools programme for 5 to 16-year-olds – for more information, see the National Tutoring Programme FAQs
- a 16 to 19 tuition fund
- an oral language intervention programme for reception-aged children
Using catch-up funding
Schools should use this funding for specific activities to support their pupils to catch up for lost teaching over the previous months, in line with the curriculum expectations for the next academic year in actions for schools during the coronavirus outbreak.
While schools can use their funding in a way that suits their cohort and circumstances, they are expected to use this funding for specific activities which will help pupils catch up on missed education.
What is Pupil Premium?
The school is allocated Pupil Premium money for all children who are currently eligible for free school meals, have been eligible at some time during the past six years, are children of service personnel or are looked after children.
What is the school required to publish?
The school is required to show the amount of pupils eligible for funding and the amount we receive as a consequence of this. We also have to show how we intend to spend the money and the impact of the actions upon the children in receipt of funding. In addition, from September 2016, schools are required to publish a Pupil Premium Strategy report.
How we present the information.
We present several pieces of information for your consideration:
-
the amount of funding and numbers of pupils
- the way we intend to spend the funding
- the impact of the funding
- links to specific pieces of work undertaken
On 18 October 2019, the Department for Education released updated guidance on the reporting of pupil premium spending.
As a school, we welcome the notion of a 3 year strategy.
A key change is the online reporting of pupil premium spending.
For the past five years, we have simply published the document that is shared with you.
New guidance states that the online statement
Is:
- not intended to be an accounting tool
- not intended to monitor within-class or within-school attainment gaps
- not used by DfE to monitor how effectively you’re using the pupil premium
- not used by DfE to allocate future funding
- only used by Oftsed to help them prepare for their visit and not for any other purpose
While you may find disclosing the rationale behind complex choices difficult, it’s important that parents and governors can understand how you’re using the pupil premium.
