‘Intensive’ teaching could be ‘transformational’ and ‘massive reassurance’ to parents in the wake of Covid-19 pandemic, Johnson says.
The government is planning to explore the value of one-to-one teaching for pupils with “exceptional abilities”, as well as those “in danger of falling behind”.
Such “intensive teaching” could be “transformational” for children in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the prime minister said today.
The comments could allude to an expansion of the government’s National Tutoring Programme (NTP), for which Teach First was tasked with recruiting up to 1,000 academic mentors to provide one-to-one and small-group support for disadvantaged pupils.
