Put your catch-up premium funding to work

All government-maintained schools are receiving catch-up premium funding. The catch-up premium funds give you control over how best to help your students that have dropped behind. You can use the money as you see fit and can also carry unused funding towards future financial years. See the guidance

Maximum Flexibility

Book teachers for small group tutoring or supply cover to enable your teachers to lead intervention groups. You can choose the time, frequency and duration of the bookings all for similar or lower cost than through the National Tutoring Programme (NTP).

Quality teaching staff

We provide qualified teachers with experience across primary, secondary, SEN and alternative provision. All staff complete our strict vetting requirements, including our CPD-accredited safeguarding course.

Low-cost support

We know you want your money to go as far as it can. Our model allows us to provide 1:4–1:6 tutoring at similar or better value than through the National Tutoring Programme (NTP).

FAQ

What are your COVID-19 precautions?

We require all staff going in to schools to follow government guidance and declare that they are not experiencing any symptoms.

What can I use the catch-up funding for?

As per the DfE, “Schools have the flexibility to spend their funding in the best way for their cohort and circumstances".

Engaging tutors via Zen Educate could give you an extra pair of hands during the week, freeing up your time to better respond to incoming challenges. Our staff are available for long-term booking which would provide continuity of education to allow children to catch up, and continuity of support in your school.
