The 16 to 19 tuition fund 2022 to 2023 academic year

Children and young people across the country have experienced unprecedented disruption to their education as a result of coronavirus (COVID-19). Those from the most vulnerable and disadvantaged backgrounds will be among those hardest hit. 

The government announced £1 billion of funding to support children and young people to catch up. 

Trinity Solutions Academy fully utilised the funding issued in 20/21, with no underspend. Evaluation at: The 16 to 19 Tuition Fund 20/21

For 21/22 Trinity Solutions Academy used this funding for their 16–19 Study programme and target support for our learners to catch up for lost teaching over the previous months in line with DFE Guidance and prioritised support for disadvantaged learners.
