Leeds

Tutor Trust were delighted to expand into Leeds in 2015, our first office outside of Manchester, with the full support of the City Council and the University of Leeds.  And we are proud to be an Ambassador for 'Child Friendly Leeds'.

In the 2019/20 academic year, we delivered over 2,500 hours of tutoring in more than 25 schools across Leeds.

For our work in Leeds, we recruit tutors from the University of Leeds, and the Tutor Trust office is based in the Careers Centre on campus.  We also recruit from Leeds Beckett University and are really pleased with the partnership we're building here.  Tutor Trust presents an invaluable opportunity for the Leeds’ student community to increase their employability prospects and give something back to the city.  With 67% of our tutors being interested in a career in teaching and with strong links with Teach First, we help to shape and inspire the future exceptional teachers of Leeds. 

Our work in Leeds continues to thrive and grow, and is being recognised by others.  In June 2017, Tutor Trust Leeds won the top ‘Spirit of the Community Award’ from the Yorkshire Bank Foundation (beating 300 other competition entries).

Here is what one of our partner schools has said about us:

We've worked successfully with Tutor Trust Leeds since February 2015 and we've been really pleased with the quality and reliability of the tutors that the charity provides. Teaching staff and pupils alike value the tuition and I would encourage other Heads to explore a partnership with Tutor Trust.  Mark Cooper, Headteacher, Mount St Mary's Catholic High School
