The 16-19 Tuition Fund – 2021-22 Academic Year

DfE guidance sets out that funding provided to Ã山ǿ¼é Doncaster to support catch-up resulting from lockdown should be used to support those students that have not yet achieved level 4 or 5 in either GCSE English or maths and/or are from an economically disadvantaged background. The funding is to provide broad assistance to help targeted students to complete their overall programmes successfully.

Ã山ǿ¼é Doncaster is using the funding to provide additional staffing to work specifically with an identified group of students. The college has identified students particularly at risk, for example because there is evidence of possible underachievement, because they struggled to engage with distance learning during lockdown, because there are identified challenges in terms of motivation, organisation or study skills, or because students need support to develop aspirations and plans for their next steps after college, or for other reasons.

The identified group of students will be provided with:

  • one to one or small group support for GCSE English resits
  • one to one support in GCSE and functional skills maths for resits
  • One to one tuition for individuals will be provided via either the MyTutor scheme or internally staffed through evening or half term sessions. MyTutor involves weekly online sessions with university students (third party provider) who will tailor the support to match the needs of our learners who have been adversely affected by the pandemic.
  • Bespoke support will be offered for small groups or individuals who require help with progression, organisation, study skills, mental health or any other areas that will promote successful next steps. For Year 13 students, the impact of this provision will be judged by reviewing the proportion of the group that fully complete their programmes, by considering measures of their attainment and progress, and by reviewing the destinations of students upon completion. For Year 12 students, the impact of this provision will be judged by reviewing the proportion of students that progress to the second year of study and by considering evidence of academic progress.
