What Is It?

• Principles of One-to-One Tuition
• Teachers provide a highly-skilled response to
  students needs in English and Maths
• Students develop the skills and confidence to
  learn effectively in the classroom
• Tuition can inform/ support the development of
  other forms of intervention at KS3, it shouldnt
  stand alone
• The ultimate in personalised learning

6
What Is It?

• In Practice
• 10 sessions of One-to-One Tuition for pupils who
  are not making sufficient progress in English or
  Maths
• Delivered/facilitated by a qualified teacher,
  addressing specific areas identified by the class
  teacher and learning strategies/skills that will
  support engagement in the classroom

7
How Big Is It?

• National
• Introduced as part of the Making Good Progress
  pilot
• 36,000 pupils in Y5 Y6 for Spring and Summer
  2009
• 300,000 pupils (3.5) in KS2 KS3 in total for
  English and Mathematics in 2009/10
• 300,000 pupils in English and 300,000 pupils in
  Mathematics by 2010/11

How Big Is It?

• South Gloucestershire
• 190 pupils in Y5 Y6 for 2008/09
• 1500 pupils over KS2 KS3 in 2009/10
• 3000 pupils in 2010/11
• This will include pupils involved in the Every
  Child a Writer programme
• A significant Wave 3 intervention for
• students who are not making expected
• progress

9
How Big Is It?

• Planning
• Allocations based on number of students entering
  Key Stage below expected level
• Funding
• Tutor costs 12 hours _at_ 25 per hour
• Contribution towards on-costs 12 x 4
• Contribution towards in-school costs 20 per
  pupil

10
Why Is It Important?

• The Quality Of Pupils Learning And Their
  Progress
• how well pupils make progress relative to their
  starting points, using contextual value added and
  other value added measures, including whether
  there is any significant variation between groups
  of pupils (for example, minority ethnic groups,
  groups with different prior attainment, gender
  groups, able, gifted and talented groups, pupils
  speaking English as an additional language),
  making clear whether there is any
  underachievement generally or among particular
  groups who could be doing better
• (OFSTED Evaluation Schedule from Sept 2009)

11
Why Is It Important?

• We now want to ensure that every child who has
  fallen behind during Key Stage 2or by the start
  of secondary school has an entitlement to extra
  support. As part of the Pupil Guarantee, there
  will be a guarantee of ten hours of one-to-one
  catch-up tuition for primary pupils who are
  falling behind during Key Stage 2. And for those
  children who are not secure in English and
  mathematics at the expected level (National
  Curriculum Level 4) when they start secondary
  school, we will also guarantee them one-to-one or
  small group catch-up tuition in Year 7.

12
Why Should Schools Take It On?

• MGP Pilot
• Pupils in receipt of tuition have made better
  progress than those not receiving tuition
• Tuition seems to have a particularly strong
  impact on progress among pupils selected from
  lower starting points
• Tuition seems to be particularly beneficial for
  certain groups of pupils (EAL/FSM)

13
Why Should Schools Take It On?

• Teachers report
• That following tuition pupils are more willing to
  have a go, ask questions, put their hand up etc
• Seeing the transfer of skills from tuition to the
  classroom
• Learners are more engaged in the subject tutored
  and across the curriculum
• That pupils who have finished tuition show
  improvements in attainment as recorded through
  termly assessments

14
Why Should Schools Take It On?

• Headteachers report
• Tuition has a positive impact on teacher cpd,
  pupils and school improvement. Although it
  requires effort, particularly getting it off the
  ground, its really worthwhile
• Seeing the impact on pupils interms of their
  confidence and progression overcomes the initial
  concerns you have about tuition.
• The response from parents to tuition has been
  amazing. I was surprised by this and it has
  definitely increased my efforts to make tuition a
  success.

15
How Can Schools Organize Tuition?

• Read the Essentials and Good Practice
• document and either
• Highlight statements that describe how your
  school is organizing tuition
• Or
• b) Highlight statements that describe how you
  feel your school could organize tuition

16
How Can Schools Organize Tuition?

• Questions
• What do you anticipate to be the successes of how
  your school has organized or will organize
  tuition?
• What are or will be the challenges of organizing
  tuition?

17
How Can Governors Support Its Development In
Schools?

• Questions governors could ask include
• How have pupils been identified?
• Who is tutoring the pupils and how is it
  organised, particularly liaison between tutor and
  teacher/ tutor and parents?
• Are there any personnel issues that the governors
  need to be aware of?
• What is the timescale for tutoring the allocated
  numbers of pupils? Is the school on track to
  make full use of the funding over the academic
  year?
• What impact has one to one tutoring had on pupils
  or is anticipated to have on pupils?
