Action Tutoring unlocks the potential of children and young people who are facing disadvantage. We are tackling the attainment gap head-on by forging partnerships with schools nationwide. Our trained volunteer tutors are empowered to enable pupils to make meaningful academic progress, opening doors to future opportunities.
The opportunity
Education in this country isn’t fair. If you are from a poorer socio-economic background, you are less likely to achieve academically than your peers.
As an English or maths tutor, you will choose one of our partner schools and work with 1-3 pupils for an hour a week, across the course 10-20 weeks. Sessions are either delivered on the school premises or online, at the same time each week. You can choose to support children preparing for their SATs (ages 9-11) or GCSEs (ages 14-16). We provide all of our tutors with training, workbooks to use in sessions, a DBS check and travel expenses up to £5 per session.
Face-to-face opportunities are available in Birmingham, Bristol, Liverpool, Southport, Wirral, Newcastle, Nottingham, Sheffield, London and Sussex. Links to our school locations can be found here at the bottom.
You can tutor online from anywhere in England, Scotland and Wales. Please note we cannot currently accept tutors who live outside the UK or are under the age of 18. Learn more about our virtual programmes here – https://actiontutoring.org.uk/reacharea/virtual-programmes/
