Careers at Action Tutoring
Action Tutoring is a national education charity supporting children and young people facing socio-economic disadvantage to achieve a meaningful level of academic attainment. With a view to enabling them to progress in education, employment or training.
We do this by partnering high quality volunteer tutors with pupils to increase their subject knowledge, confidence and study skills. Evidence shows that tutoring can make a significant difference to a young person's academic achievement, and we believe the opportunity to access tutoring shouldn't be limited by family income and background.
Through our network of brilliant and committed volunteer tutors, we make the benefits of tutoring available to those that may not otherwise be able to afford it, enabling them to reach their potential.
Our vision is a world in which no child's life chances are limited by their background or circumstances.

👩👧👧 Team members
Everyone is really supportive and work amazingly well as a team!
📖 Opportunities to learn
So many interesting Lunch and Learns! And opportunities to meet, discuss and share good practice with colleagues.
📣 Mission & Purpose
The education of young people has always been my main passion and what I've dedicated myself to for the past 24 years! And closing the attainment gap between disadvantaged pupils and their more affluent peers has been my main focus, as a teacher previously, and now as a manager at Action Tutoring.
Overall
Supportive colleagues and an important purpose! - AC

👩👧👧 Team members
The collaborative and supportive work culture at AT was evident to see from the moment I joined the organisation. Everyone is so kind and willing to help, and I truly feel inspired each day to be working alongside such talented and passionate individuals.
📖 Opportunities to learn
There have been many opportunities to learn during my time at AT. We have regular 'Lunch and Learn' sessions which gives us the chance to have a deep dive into fascinating topics and further enhance our skillset and knowledge.
📣 Mission & Purpose
The main reason I joined AT is because I believe so strongly in the mission and what it stands for. I believe that the attainment gap in the UK education system is one of the main drivers of inequality in this country, so being part of an organisation which sets out to bridge that gap has been incredibly rewarding.
Overall
Excellent work culture, values and mission.

Overall
It's a supportive culture that deeply cares for its people and their wellbeing.
