The National Tutoring Programme (NTP) is a government-funded initiative, for the academic year 2020-21, to support schools in addressing the impact of the Covid-19 closures on pupils' learning
It is available to primary and secondary state-maintained schools and will provide additional support to help pupils who have missed out the most as a result of school closures
It consists of two pillars
- NTP partners - from an approved list of organisations, schools will be able to access heavily subsidised tutoring
- NTP coaches - these will be trained graduates employed by schools in the most disadvantaged areas to provide intensive catch-up support to pupils
Using quality standards and criteria to support the most disadvantaged pupils, school leaders and teachers will decide which approach best fits their needs, which partners to work with and which pupils will benefit most from the additional tuition
The NTP has been designed through the collaboration of the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), Sutton Trust, Impetus and Nesta who will be involved in the initial delivery of the programme
