Covid-19 Catch Up Premium
We recognise the challenges and the need to support our pupils as a result of the disruption to pupils’ learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Covid-19 Catch-Up Premium Grant will be used for this purpose.
We have taken a bespoke approach to ensure that the additional support provided meets the needs of our pupils.
The Covid-19 catch-up funding was a one-off grant to all schools for the 2020-2021 academic year. The amount received by the school was: £28,640.
How the Catch-Up Premium was utilised:
- Additional catch-up interventions outside of normal lessons.
- Breakfast club booster sessions.
- Holiday interventions.
- Small group or 1:1 tuition for targeted pupils.
- Additional deployment of support staff to further strengthen quality first teaching.
- Targeted counselling, mentoring and coaching.
How the effect of the grant on the educational attainment of pupils was assessed:

| End of key stage outcomes | Increase in key end-of-key-stage outcomes, including progress and attainment measures |
| Wellbeing of pupils | Positive feedback from pupil voice; increased engagement with school, interventions and the extra-curriculum; improved overall achievement of pupils |
