16-19 Tuition Fund Support
The college is using tuition funding to support the tuition of additional small group support for students in English, maths, or other courses where learning has been disrupted. Identified teachers support a small group of students once per week for one or two hours over a course of six weeks to catch up on missed learning. The number of weeks may be extended if we feel it is needed. These students are identified by their subject teachers and clear plans for catch-up are put in place; support is targeted particularly for disadvantaged students.
Students who have additional support from the tuition fund support sessions tell us they find them particularly useful for the following reasons:
- Having a teacher there to help if I have a question, so instant feedback
- Helps me with time management (set time and structure/routine) and doing assignments task by task
- The most useful part has been the tracker which set me goals for each session
- It’s really helpful for me to manage my work and gets me motivated.
