The impact
Tutoring Plus
Over the course of the 2022 / 23 academic
year we partnered with ImpactEd to
evaluate the impact of our Tutoring
Plus work, including the impact of our
innovative The Right Angle programme
that combines 1:1 tutoring with counselling
from our partners at TLC: Talk, Listen,
Change. ImpactEd are a fellow member
of the Fair Education Alliance and support
schools and education organisations to
better understand the impact of their
programmes. This is the 昀椀rst independent
evaluation of The Right Angle since the
launch of this programme as part of the
DfE’s Innovation Fund.
• Pupils responded very positively to
tutoring, were engaged during sessions,
and their engagement in learning
improved in the classroom too
• Over the course of the programme,
pupils appeared to become happier
and more settled in school.
The research has demonstrated the very
positive impacts that the programmes
have on young people’s attainment,
wellbeing and engagement in education.
We look forward to the publication of the
full evaluation report in January 2024.

A few key 昀椀ndings are given below:
• On average, pupils increased the
grade of the subject they were tutored
in by half a grade point
• The lower a pupil’s GCSE grade at the
start of the programme, the more
progress they made
• Pupils’ wellbeing levels rose by an
average of four percentage points across
Tutoring Plus and The Right Angle and
their psychological distress decreased
