What is the National Tutoring Programme (NTP)?

The National Tutoring Programme (NTP) is a government-funded, sector-led initiative to support schools to address the impact of Covid-19 school closures on pupils’ learning. From autumn 2020, the NTP will make high-quality tuition available to schools, providing additional support to help pupils who have missed out the most as a result of school closures.
