What is the Coronavirus (COVID-19) catch-up premium?

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) catch-up premium is designed to support secondary schools to ensure children catch up as a result of the coronavirus and disruption caused to their education.

For 2020-2021, the government has invested over £1 billion in funding to support children. The allocation of funding is calculated on a per pupil basis, providing each mainstream school with a total of £80 for each pupil in years 7 through to 11. 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 in the actions for schools during the coronavirus outbreak guidance.
