Action Tutoring is a registered charity seeking to support pupils in inner city schools preparing for GCSEs in English and Maths, to ensure they leave school with 5 A-C GCSEs including English and Maths, to increase their chances of going on to further education, employment or training. Action Tutoring launched in Spring 2011 and has since grown rapidly, from an initial pilot programme with 2 schools to now working with 30 schools in London and launching in Manchester. Volunteer tutors work with pupils for an hour a week, for an 8 week programme.
