What is Catch Up Premium?

• In June 2020 the government announced £1 billion of funding to support children and young people to catch up on missed learning caused by coronavirus (COVID19). 
• Mainstream schools received £80 for each pupil from Reception to Year 6.
• At Belswains Primary School, we made a Bounce Back Plan which gave every pupil (from Reception to Year 6) the opportunity recieve tuition from a qualified teacher.
• This was to address the gaps formed during the COVID lockdowns. 

Belswains Bounce Back

• Each phase of this plan focuses on a certain year group.
• Pupils are offered 7 tutoring sessions (in groups of 4).
• Pupils are grouped according to the skills and knowledge they need to work on.
• Pupil’s gaps in learning are determined by their class teacher, they then liaise with the tutor. 
• These sessions will take place before or after school, so they are in addition to their class learning.
• On completion of their tutoring, each pupil receives a Bounce Back Certificate highlighting what they have learnt in these session.
