11th December 2025 - Season's greetings

Dear All,

As we reach the end of 2025 and take time to reflect upon the year, we recognise that it has been a very busy one for many of us, with very familiar challenges, but also wonderful, positive outcomes for the struggling learners we all support.

We have been delighted to welcome many new trainees to deliver the Catch Up® interventions and been pleased to have past trainees return to delivery as well. As schools continue to work tirelessly on closing the attainment gap, in a challenging time, we know that the Catch Up® interventions can support progress, and with your help the word is spreading.
