About Tutor Trust

We’re a proudly Northern charity that believes in equity in education. We do our bit to achieve that by partnering with schools and education providers, to enable their young people to work alongside inspiring and motivating tutors – an opportunity they may not otherwise have.

We know that our high-quality tuition helps improve young people’s academic attainment, wellbeing, and self-confidence, and supports their personal aspirations.

The NTP which ran from 2020 to 2024 allowed us to reach more pupils than ever before. However, the end of NTP subsidies and other pressures on school budgets mean we are increasingly relying on fundraising, projects etc to enable us to continue to support a high number of pupils.
