The Tutor Trust Community brings together former tutors who continue to champion fairer access to education while supporting one another professionally.
With more than 1 million young people in the UK now not in education, employment or training (NEET), rising NEET rates are a growing concern for young people, communities and the wider economy. Following the interim report on Young People and Work, we highlight the links between attainment, absenteeism, disadvantage and future outcomes. We explore how tutoring can support young people to stay engaged in education, improve attainment and build confidence.
Tutor Trust recently participated in a pilot study funded by the Education Endowment Foundation, which explored the impact of tutoring on post-16 learners resitting their GCSEs. The study produced encouraging results, demonstrating that tutoring can significantly enhance both academic attainment and learners’ attitudes towards education. It also highlighted key lessons around effective implementation, particularly the importance of strong partnerships with colleges to boost engagement and maximise impact.
