Action Tutoring is a national charity dedicated to closing the academic attainment gap between pupils facing disadvantage and their more affluent peers. By harnessing the power of volunteering, our trained tutors help pupils build maths and English subject knowledge, study skills and confidence.

Education in this country isn’t fair. The difference in outcomes between disadvantaged pupils and their peers is large and persistent. Disadvantaged pupils have as much will and determination, but often lack access to tools that help them achieve. Nationally, fewer than half of young people facing disadvantage leave school with a pass in GCSE English and maths, harming their transition into future training, education and employment. Our support is needed more than ever.
We forge partnerships with primary and secondary schools to provide maths and English tutoring to support disadvantaged pupils to unlock their infinite potential. We use the power of volunteer tutors to ensure tuition can be accessed by pupils who truly need it, not just those that can afford it. Through weekly one-hour sessions, our volunteers help pupils build their subject knowledge, skills, and confidence, allowing them to unlock their academic potential and open doors to their future.
