School Partnerships

Tuition that works
because it's taught by
real teachers

Every tutor in the Strive network holds Qualified Teacher Status. For schools, that means professional lesson delivery, curriculum fluency, and TutorCruncher reporting your SLT can share with Ofsted on day one.

The Strive difference

Most providers send graduates.
We send teachers.

It sounds like a small distinction. For a SENCO, a Deputy Head, or a governor reviewing Ofsted prep — it's everything.

Other providers
Graduates and PhD students with no classroom experience
No knowledge of formal assessment or mark schemes
Generic lesson notes with limited SLT value
No SEN training or EHCP experience
High tutor turnover — inconsistent student relationships
Reporting that creates admin, not removes it
No named contact — just a helpdesk ticket system
Strive Tutors
Every tutor holds QTS — practising classroom teachers
Many are active GCSE and A Level exam board examiners
TutorCruncher session reports — Ofsted and governor ready
SEN-trained tutors; SENDCO-qualified specialists available
Stable, long-term tutor relationships with each student
Your named Strive contact manages everything for you
One agreement — scalable across every school in your MAT
"The question we ask before any school placement: would we be confident presenting this tutor to the head of an outstanding school? If the answer isn't an immediate yes — they don't work with us."
How it works

From first conversation
to first lesson in under a week

We've deliberately made the process simple — because you have enough to manage already.

01
Discovery call
30 minutes understanding your students, priorities, and what good looks like. No forms. No sales pitch. Just a conversation.
02
Tutor matching
Within 48 hours: qualified teacher profiles matched to your subjects, year groups, and SEN requirements.
03
Sessions begin
Your named Strive contact manages scheduling and changes. Every session logged through TutorCruncher.
04
You see the impact
Regular progress reports in a format SLT and governors can use — session notes, targets, and next steps.
Who we work with

Built for every school structure

Deputy Heads & SLT
You need provision that delivers without hand-holding. Strive's reporting gives you governor-ready evidence of impact without adding to your workload.
SENCOs & SEN Leads
All Strive tutors are SEN trained. SENDCO-qualified specialists in our network, briefed on every student's EHCP before their first session.
Heads of Year
You know which students are at risk before the data does. A consistent, trusted weekly presence makes the difference.
MAT Procurement
One agreement, consistent quality across every school in your trust. Centralised reporting, flexible scheduling, scalable provision.
What's included

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Every Strive school partnership includes the following as standard — not as add-ons.

QTS-holding tutors only
No exceptions. Every tutor is a practising classroom teacher. Many have taught at outstanding-rated schools.
Enhanced DBS checked
Every tutor is Enhanced DBS checked before placement. We proactively manage renewals — you don't have to.
SEN-ready placements
SEN-trained tutors matched to students with EHCPs. Tutors briefed on individual needs before their first session.
TutorCruncher reporting
Session notes, attendance, and progress summaries. Give SLT read-only portal access or receive termly PDF reports.
Named account contact
One person at Strive to call. Not a helpdesk. A contact who knows your school, students, and priorities.
Flexible scheduling
Before school, after school, intervention periods, or holidays. We fit around your timetable.

Get started

Start with a conversation.
Not a contract.

Free discovery call for any school considering a partnership. No obligation — just an honest conversation about whether Strive is the right fit.

On the call, we'll cover:
  • Which students you're looking to support and what progress looks like for them
  • How TutorCruncher reporting works and what SLT, governors, or Ofsted would see
  • How we handle safeguarding, SEN matching, and tutor continuity
  • Pricing, scheduling options, and what a pilot programme looks like
  • Any questions you have — including the ones you'd normally save for meeting two
Our safeguarding commitment

Safeguarding is not a box we tick — it's the foundation of everything we do in schools. Every Strive tutor is Enhanced DBS checked, trained in safeguarding to the current national guidance (KCSIE 2024), and understands their responsibilities under your school's policy before their first session. Our full safeguarding policy is available on request.
