Year 7 Catch Up Premium 2014-15
The Year 7 Catch-Up premium provides additional funding to schools to accelerate the progress of identified pupils in English and Mathematics. The funding is aimed at Year 7 pupils who did not achieve at least level 4 in the Key Stage 2 national curriculum tests in reading and/or mathematics, and begin the autumn at a disadvantage to their peer in prior attainment (<level 4). The funding enables the school to deliver additional support, such as individual tuition or intensive support in small groups, for those pupils that most need it, so that they catch up with their peers.
