Education Programme Coordinator

**Our Company**

Tutors Green is one of the UK’s leading tuition providers - we’re a purpose led company on a mission to make first-class tuition accessible to more students.

Improving the academic outcomes of disadvantaged pupils is at the core of our practice. We have over 7 years’ experience working closely with schools and Local Authorities to deliver highly tailored tuition programmes that help pupils build confidence and achieve their target grades.

We have partnerships with over one hundred schools, several local authorities and we’re a Tuition Partner of the National Tutoring Programme, a programme set up by the Department for Education to make high-quality tutoring available to schools - to help those whose education has been most affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

It’s been an exciting year at Tutors Green, we’ve experienced rapid growth in demand for our services, our internal team has doubled in size and we’re working with more students, schools, Local Authorities and charities than ever before.

To maintain the quality of service as we scale up our tuition services nationally, we’re continuing to grow our internal team.

Tutors Green is committed to the safeguarding of children and young people.
