Can you spare just an hour a week for 8 weeks? Then get involved with an exciting educational charity!


We place volunteer tutors in nearby secondary schools, to support pupils preparing for GCSEs on the C/D borderline in English, Maths or Science. Our aim is to help students leave school with 5 A*-C GCSEs including English and Maths, to increase their chances of going on to further education, employment or training. Help us bring the benefits of tuition to those who would not otherwise afford it.


We provide all volunteers training, resources and an enhanced DBS check if you need one. We award you for performance and there's a chance to become a Bronze, Silver or Gold tutor.


So far we are working with the following schools nearby (but are planning on adding more)


Coninsborough College - we need people on Saturday mornings at 10am, starting on the 20th September. There is a training session on the 11th September at 5pm.

City of London Academy (SE1 5LA) (mid September, times and dates tbc)


Applications are open now! Please fill in our short form: http://www.tfaforms.com/332860


If you have any questions please email me ? [email protected] or call 02079227760


Here?s what some of our recent volunteer tutors have said:

"Action Tutoring is the most rewarding tutoring you will do. The kids are enthusiastic, interested, and really appreciate the attention. It is a great project to be a part of."

      Police appeal: Monday, 25 August – Assault between the junction of Lordship Lane and Chesterfield Grove at around 16:45hrs

      Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.

      https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger

      Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.

      It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
