Refer a Student

Refer a student for our Community Education Fund (CEF) tutoring sessions. We provide one-to-one and small group tutoring, funded on a needs basis, to help young people who need it most.

How it works:We have a limited number of CEF places available each term, funded on a needs basis. Referrals are prioritised by need, so the supporting statement and any evidence you can share below helps us assess fairly. Depending on the family's circumstances, a small contribution may apply. We'll confirm this directly with the family if a place is offered.

All sessions are delivered online by trained, DBS-checked tutors.

Supporting evidence (optional)

If you already have something that supports this referral (e.g. confirmation of Pupil Premium/FSM, an EHCP, or a letter from another professional), you're welcome to attach it. If not, that's fine, evidence isn't required to submit this referral. We may ask for it at a later stage if a place looks likely, either from you or directly from the family being referred.
