Tutor Trust Post-16 Tutoring Pilot

Tutor Trust recently participated in a pilot study funded by the Education Endowment Foundation, which explored the impact of tutoring on post-16 learners resitting their GCSEs. The study produced encouraging results, demonstrating that tutoring can significantly enhance both academic attainment and learners’ attitudes towards education. It also highlighted key lessons around effective implementation, particularly the importance of strong partnerships with colleges to boost engagement and maximise impact.
