About
VTO provides free tutor support to children and young people aged 8-18, to help tackle the poverty related attainment gap in Scotland. We work with young people from diverse backgrounds including, but not limited to, those who are care experienced, those who speak English as an additional language (EAL) or those faced with perceived barriers to learning. Our volunteers focus on developing a person-centred tutoring experience through relationship building to instil confidence and increase motivation and educational attainment. Volunteers from a range of diverse backgrounds and experiences are welcome.
