The summer schools programme was set up in response to the impact that the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic had on pupils learning. The aim of the Summer schools programme was to provide pupils with academic education and enrichment activities in order to mitigate the impact of lost learning, particularly with regard to reading and mathematics. At Glebe School we aimed to ensure that our summer school programme was used by the pupils who would benefit most. In addition to providing support with English and maths, the funding was used to improve our summer school programme, which offered an opportunity for pupils to enhance their learning and wellbeing through a range of activities, including team, music, drama and sports activities. Each day students attended assembly and took part in a variety of warm up activities (dance, yoga, sensory circuits) at the start of the day to ensure they were all aware of the timetable for the day, settled and ready to learn. During Summer School all students had one English, maths and science lesson every day in the morning and took part in a variety of enrichment activities every afternoon. All students also greatly enjoyed our trip to Sparrows Den where they played mini golf.
