16 to 19 Tuition Fund Statement 21-22
16 to 19 Tuition Fund 2021 to 2022 Academic Year
The 16 to 19 tuition fund is ring-fenced funding for schools, colleges and all other 16 to 19 institutions who receive annual funding allocations from ESFA for the provision of 16 to 19 education, to mitigate the disruption to learning arising from coronavirus (COVID-19).
Our share of the funding including £3,030 carry forward from the 2020 to 2021 academic year is £19,405.
The guidance related to the funding means that all students must be on a 16 to 19 study programme and the funding should be used to support the tuition activity above and beyond the programmes of education already planned. It is for students who:
- have not achieved a grade 4 or 5 in English and/or maths
- have a grade 4 or above in English and/or maths, are from an economically disadvantaged background and would need catch-up support. These are defined as students from the 27% most economically deprived areas of the country based on the index of multiple deprivation
The need for support will be determined and agreed between the eligible learners and staff. Typically support will be in the form of small group tuition over and above the teaching timetabled for that subject.
