END OF AUTUMN TERM16DAYS TO GO HOMEPARENTSYEAR 7 CATCH UP FUNDING YEAR 7 CATCH UP FUNDING YEAR 7 LITERACY AND NUMERACY CATCH UP PREMIUM 2019-2020 The Year 7 Literacy and Numeracy Catch up Premium has been offered by the government as a commitment to provide additional funding to schools. This is aimed at each Year 7 student who did not achieve the expected standard in their Key Stage 2 national tests in reading and/or mathematics (a scaled score of 99 or below). The purpose of this funding is to enable Worthing High to deliver additional support, such as individual tuition or intensive support in small groups, for those students who need it most. This does not mean an individual entitlement to the funding, rather that the school has the discretion to spend this money to ensure that identified students are able to make the necessary progress. Proposed Expenditure for 2019/20 We have currently identified 59 students eligible for the catch up premium in the academic year 2019-20. This is made up from: Literacy only 14 students Numeracy only 13 students Both Literacy and Numeracy 32 students The grant allocation for 19/20 is £21,000. The funding will be spent in a variety of ways to help support the students make progress with their English and maths. Interventions include: Small group interventions for Literacy and Numeracy Reading, phonic and handwriting sessions Sound Training Literacy and maths transition co-ordinator roles Resources for interventions Impact of spending for 2018-19 The allocation £23,361 was used to support 67 students needing literacy catch up and 52 needing Maths catch up. Interventions followed the same pattern in place as 2017-18 with a major focus on literacy interventions in Inclusion and the use of the Accelerated Reader programme in the Library Resource Centre. The impact so far on these students’ attainment in English and Maths is as follows: English Maths % now on target to achieve expected progress or above 75% 68% % now on target to achieve above expected progress 27% 6% IN THIS SECTION Catch Up Funding 2020/21 Catering Cycle Safety E-Safety Free School Meal Application Process Inclusion Letters Links Parent Forum / Parent View Parents Evening Pastoral Support Prospective Parents/Carers Pupil Premium Safeguarding School Travel Plan School Uniform & Equipment Student Attendance and Absence Line Wise Pay Year 7 Catch Up Funding Term Dates THE WORTHING WAY FIND US 01903 237864 EMAIL US © 2021 Worthing High School • School Website Design by e4education • High Visibility Version • Sitemap • Privacy Policy • Cookie Settings COOKIE POLICY This site uses cookies to store information on your computer.
