The 16 to 19 Tuition Fund
STATEMENT ON HOW WE INTEND TO USE THE FUND TO SUPPORT OUR STUDENTS
The 16 to 19 Tuition Fund is an additional fund to help support students that meet the criteria for additional support. The eligibility criteria for 2023-24 is as follows:
- students who have not achieved a grade 6 in GCSE English and/or GCSE maths at age 16 and would need catch-up support
- students from the 27% most economically deprived areas of the country (based on the index of multiple deprivation) and would need catch-up support
- students who are economically disadvantaged who meet the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund eligibility criteria and would need catch-up support to reach their full potential will be eligible, even where their prior attainment is high
All supported students must be on a 16 to 19 study programme and have had their learning disrupted by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We will consider the needs of students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), particularly where students experienced additional disruption.
Small group (maximum 5 students) and/or individual tuition, will be provided for eligible students to give additional support following disruption in their learning caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The tuition may cover a range of subjects depending on the needs identified of the individual students, with English and Maths prioritised. Tuition will take place in small groups or 1:1 sessions and will be scheduled in addition to the planned programme of study hours already timetabled for the academic year. Tuition and additional support may be delivered using a blend of online tuition from a third party provider and on-site delivery.
