Year 7 Catch Up Funding

Oriel High School received £25,000 in 2016/17 to support Year 7 students who had not reached Level 4 at the end of Key Stage 2 in Literacy and/or Numeracy.  We used the funding to cover the following

• individual tuition in addition to classroom teaching
• intensive small-group tuition
• peer mentoring reading buddies
• purchasing external services and materials to add to those provided by the school, for example tutor services or proven computer-based learning or online support
• summer school to deliver intensive catch-up over a short period
• Literacy Leader and Numeracy Leader within the English and Maths departments
