Children from lower-income families are less likely to achieve academically than their better-off peers. Action Tutoring is a charity that works to level the playing field.

We are looking for volunteers to support pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds in maths or English.

As a volunteer, you’ll:

Work with 1-3 pupils to improve their English and maths, either in-person or online
Commit to a 10-20 week programme, for just one hour a week
Support either primary or secondary school-aged pupils
Use our tutor workbooks to shape your weekly sessions

Good grades improve future prospects, opening the door to a wider range of opportunities. If you enjoy working with children and are passionate about social equality, you can make a tangible difference by volunteering for an hour a week.

Online spaces are very limited and we're encouraging applications from volunteers who can tutor in a local school.

What support will I get?

Training (a two-hour induction session)
In-session support from your Programme Coordinator
Tutor workbooks with session plans
Travel expenses up to £5 per session
A free DBS check
