Year 7 Catch - Up Funding Impact Statement 2019 - 2020
The Year 7 Catch Up Funding is a government initiative that provides additional funding designed to target resources on those students who have not achieved level 4 or above in Reading and/or Maths. It is estimated that the Department for Education (DfE) provides us with an additional £464.27 per student so that we can deliver extra support to help these students to “catch up.”
In 2019 – 2020 funding was £8357.00
