About This Webinar

Tutoring is a key strand of the government’s policy to help some of the most disadvantaged pupils catch up on education missed during the pandemic.

Not-for-profit tutoring organisation Tutor Trust is a partner with the National Tutoring Programme and provides services to schools across Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Leeds and Bradford.

It has worked with Parklands Primary School in Leeds for a year with positive results.

This session will look at what makes for great tutoring and why good relationships, clear communication and being adaptable are key.
