How the National Tutoring Programme funding works
Schools will have the flexibility to decide how to use their NTP funding. They can use the funding to pay for salaried, in-house academic mentors, to pay their existing staff or engage with a tuition partner that has been quality assured by the DfE. State-funded schools will receive NTP funding over the course of the academic year 23/24 to deliver tuition to their pupils. The funding can be used to cover 50% of the cost of tutoring, with schools targeting the tutoring offer towards their pupil premium cohort and paying the remaining 50% of the cost using their Pupil Premium (PP) or other core school budgets. For the academic year 23/24, the following NTP funding is provided: • Mainstream schools receive £162 per PP-eligible pupil • Non-mainstream schools receive £423 per PP-eligible pupil
