About the Organisation

The Access Project supports students from disadvantaged backgrounds to access top universities, through a unique combination of tuition and in-school mentoring. We work with them to make good applications, get the grades and transition to university.

Role Description
The Access Project supports students from under-resourced backgrounds to access top universities. We partner with eligible secondary schools and colleges who share our belief that students with high potential should have equitable access to higher education, regardless of their background.

We are looking for volunteer tutors to work with a young person aged 14-16, for one hour a week through the 2025-26 academic year. Tutoring sessions take place online, allowing you to volunteer at a time that works for you.

In this role, you will:

·       Help a young person achieve the GCSE grades they deserve and fulfil their potential, through providing academic support in a subject of your choice.

·       Build transferable skills, experience and knowledge through ongoing training and development.

·       Make a lasting impact and pay forward your experience.

·       Contribute to our wider mission to improve social mobility through access to higher education.

No prior teaching or tutoring experience necessary - we provide comprehensive training and support, enabling you to continually strengthen your tutoring skills.

Interested? Please submit your details below and you will receive a link to our application form to complete. Register now to guarantee your place on our 2025/26 programme.

To apply, you’ll need to:

  • Have or be currently studying for an undergraduate degree, Level 6 qualification, or equivalent professional qualification.
  • Have studied the subject you wish to tutor, or a related subject, to A Level / Level 3 or higher.
  • Be able to commit to one hour of tutoring per week, plus 30 minutes a week preparation time.
  • Be prepared to undertake an enhanced DBS check and provide two references (personal or professional).
