Ready-to-teach curriculum
Our Curriculum team, led by specialist practitioners and former school teachers, creates resources built on an evidence-based approach and established pedagogy.
This means:
- Content directly mirrors current classroom priorities across Key Stage 2 and GCSE specifications.
- Full access to structured tutoring workbooks spanning exam requirements for maths and English.
- Your teaching staff are never required to provide resources, formulate worksheets, or plan sessions.
- All resources are intentionally structured with inclusive author selections and diverse contexts to ensure engagement for all pupils.

Action Tutoring’s programme aligns very well with our school’s curriculum and in-class teaching goals. The charity takes the time to get to know the school, the needs of the children and our priorities. Coupled with their exceptional understanding of the curriculum and child development, children excel under their care.
What I particularly value about Action Tutoring is their adaptability and responsiveness. For example, the maths resources were tailored to better align with our teaching methods, and I was included in discussions about how the charity tracks pupil progress through baseline and progress assessments. Their commitment makes a real difference in the academic development of our pupils.
Tutor training and safeguarding
Tutor quality is non-negotiable. We ensure every tutor is fully prepared to deliver effective, safe, and engaging sessions.
- Compulsory induction: All our tutors complete rigorous initial training run by qualified teachers. This induction covers safeguarding, effective work with young people, and detailed training on using Action Tutoring’s resources.
- Continuous professional development: Tutors retain ongoing access to a library of 10+ advanced instructional modules, including targeted behaviour management and addressing diverse learning needs.
- For schools utilising our online programmes, tutors undergo training on our secure online platform to maximise engagement in these sessions.
Quality assurance and transparency
We believe that external tutoring should clarify your school’s internal tracking, not complicate it.
- Measuring progress: Every pupil completes a standardised baseline assessment to map precise knowledge-gaps.
- Quality monitoring: Ongoing random spot-checks and formal, criteria-driven observations of tutoring sessions run continuously by our internal Quality Team.
- Data insights: We supply clear data insights that easily map into your formal school Pupil Premium Statements

“Action Tutoring has been invaluable in providing structured, professional tutoring that makes a real impact. Their tutors are well-trained, knowledgeable, and committed to helping pupils succeed.“
Joshua Slade, Head of Maths at Blacon High School
Diversity in the curriculum
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is a core success criterion for all our resources. We are committed to using texts and examples that reflect pupils’ lives, ensuring the curriculum is engaging, relevant, and aspirational for every pupil.
In practice:
- English: We use diversified author ranges and critically review texts to address stereotypes.
- Maths: We diversify names and contexts in word problems to reflect gender and cultural diversity.
