Cover 75% of tuition costs with the school-led tuition grant

The School Led Tutoring Grant is an add-on to offer learners from Year 1 – Year 11 extra support after missing months of classroom-based learning.
‍
Each school will receive funding of £203 for 60% of their pupils eligible under the Pupil Premium fund. For example, a School with 100 Pupil Premium children will receive 60 x £202 = £12,180. For special schools the weighing is higher with £529 per pupil being received.
‍
Non-maintained, including specialist school and units, will receive £529 per pupil for 60% of their pupil premium cohort.

The grant is an automatic payment, so there’s no need to apply; the money should automatically go to eligible schools across the UK.

As long as you are a state-funded school or academy trust, with students in years 1 to 11 that are eligible to receive the pupil premium, you’ll have access to the school-led tutoring grant. This includes all local-authority primary and secondary schools, special schools and academies, alternative provision schools and academies and hospital schools maintained by a local authority.

Whilst the grant is aimed at supporting disadvantaged pupils eligible for the pupil premium, you can use it to source extra tutoring for any child that would benefit from the support.

Maintained schools will receive their payments on the last day of September, December and April, whilst academy trusts will be October, January and May.

The government grant will cover 75% of tuition costs, meaning schools must source 25% of costs from other sources/budgets.

Yes. Our tutors run baseline assessments in their first sessions with students to get an understanding of their current abilities. From here, we plan and deliver bespoke sessions, closely monitoring progression and reporting the impact of our targeted interventions to your school.

It's worth noting that you can choose to use your grant to pay existing staff to deliver tuition sessions. However, if you partner with us, your staff need to simply identify the students you wish to provide tuition for and we'll do the rest. It's helpful to gain some insight from teaching staff into the student's areas for development which will be discussed in the planning stage of our collaboration.

Yes, both funding streams are independent of each other.
Schools could offer students one block of 15 hours of tuition with NTP and further tuition using the School - Led Grant. Whilst the Grant cannot be used to fund the NTP programme; schools can use an approved NTP provider to deliver tuition under the School - Led Grant.

The School-Led Grant offers schools flexibility in the delivery of tuition i.e. selection of students, number of hours of tuition, subjects and who delivers the tuition - an external provider like Learning Hive or existing teaching staff. It can be spent on any type of tuition and groups of any size, covering 75% of costs to schools.

NTP provision is 70% government funded and tuition must be delivered by a registered NTP provider. NTP funding has set criteria, i.e. 65% of pupils selected for the programme should be eligible for pupil premium, and pupils can access one x 15-hour block of tuition.
