The government announced £1 billion of funding to support children and young people to catch up lost time after school closure. Schools should use this funding for specific activities to support their pupils to catch up for lost teaching over the previous months, in line with the curriculum expectations for the next academic year. While schools can use their funding in a way that suits their cohort and circumstances, they are expected to use this funding for specific activities which will help pupils catch up on missed education. Accountability measures determine that schools should display their expenditure and its intended purpose.  Our report for the autumn and spring terms 2020/21 is attached here.
