Supported
434 pupils, a
135% increase
from the

53
schools
settings to provide vital tutoring and mentoring for
young people who need it most through our Tutoring
Plus programme.
Who we worked with
Our dedicated Tutoring Plus team
focuses on those who may bene昀椀t
from more individually tailored or
diversi昀椀ed support, primarily investing
in tutoring pupils who may be:
• Care-experienced
• In alternative provision (AP)
• At risk of exclusion
• Pupils with additional needs
e.g. SEND or EAL.
• Those with mental health challenges
• Those with persistent or severe
absence from school.
In 2024 Tutoring Plus supported
more than double the pupils in the
previous year (185 in 2022/23).
7,200
With 7,200
hours of
tuition
92
Delivered by
92 tutors
As these numbers grow, so too
does the breadth of support we o昀昀er.
We ensure a personalised, accessible
approach to learning, recognising that
exam-based assessments are not the
only way to measure progress.
Through our partnership with the
King’s Trust, pupils can develop
practical life skills, explore careerfocused pathways, and work toward
a GCSE-equivalent quali昀椀cation with
support from their tutor.
The newest addition to Tutoring Plus
is the Time For Me programme, which
integrates mentoring into the tuition
process. In this model, the tutor also
serves as a mentor, providing guidance
and encouragement to promote both
personal and academic growth.
Our impact
Attendance
An increase in emotionally-based
school avoidance (EBSA) has led
to a rise in absenteeism and, as
a result, even more young people
are in need of our tailored 1:1 tuition.
We’ve been seeing positive results on
attendance for those on our Tutoring
Plus programme. Our tutors build
trusted relationships with their tutees
and for many pupils, we are their
only source of education while they
struggle to engage at school. Pupils
who were identi昀椀ed as severely
absent receiving tutoring through
our Tutoring Plus programme had a
mean school attendance of 26% and
a mean tutoring attendance of 72%.
We are committed to providing the
academic and emotional support all
our tutees need, when they need it.
ImpactEd evaluation
With support from Impetus and the
Fair Education Alliance, we partnered
with ImpactEd8 on an evaluation
of our Tutoring Plus programme
this year. Their evaluation found
an improvement in wellbeing,
attendance and outcomes.
