Catch-up Funding

Following the 2020 lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, schools have received an additional amount of money to provide catch-up support for those pupils that require it. In order to utilise this additional funding in the best possible way, we have considered closely the research and advice put forward by the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) and used timely assessments of both children’s academic and personal development needs to inform our decisions. The table below outlines our intentional spend with a rationale accompanying each decision.
