Tutor Trust - Tutoring Plus (Secondary 1:1 Tuition)

We work in partnership with Secondary Schools across Greater Manchester, offering high-quality tutoring to pupils with all levels of attainment in Years 7-11.  Our programmes at Secondary are English, Maths and Science.

Additionally, we also offer some specialised programmes at this level. We’re a delivery partner for Axiom Maths, a free maths programme for high-achieving students in Years 7 through to 11 who are eligible for Pupil Premium funding. (Please see our website to learn more about our partnership with Axiom).

Our 1:1 support programme, Tutoring Plus, is also available at secondary level. Learners on this programme tend to be cared for, have poor attendance, are in Alternative Provision or need a positive role model. Please look at our website for further information.Our impact in secondary schools
