COVID Catch Up Funding Action Plan

In August 2020, the Government announced additional funding for schools to deliver Catch-Up interventions for pupils to mitigate the impact of national school closures following the Covid-19 lockdown measures. The provision of this funding is subject to change over coming academic years.

Our strategy provides a broad outline of how the catch-up funding will support rapid pupil progress in the context of returning from national school closures and the disruption faced by pupils as a result of Covid-19. The strategies described are not only integral to pupils recovering lost learning, but also to the School Improvement and Development Plan. As such, the Cztch-Up funsding allows the schools to enhance the programme of support and curriculum offer that is made to all pupils.

The overall aim of our Catch-up premium strategy is:

Gaps in pupils’ knowledge and understanding as result of Covid are addressed to ensure all can make rapid progress and reach ARE or above.
