Reallocate the £350 million from the NTP to schools to support pupils directly

Closed 30 signatures

What the petition asks

Schools are best place to support their pupils - the National Tutoring Programme will fail to do this effectively and waste public money. If this money was given to schools, it could be used effectively to support families directly and in a holistic and long term sustainable way.
The money is an excellent opportunity to invest in the services schools provide, but will be wasted if it goes to private tutoring companies that may not be invested in the children or communities they serve in the way that schools do.
