Mission Statement
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.
Description
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 volunteer, you will choose one of our partner schools and work with 1-3 pupils for an hour a week, across the course of 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.
