Nearly one in three secondary school pupils have had private tuition, research suggests.
Children in the “best-off” homes were more likely to report having had private tutoring than their peers in the “worst-off” homes (35% compared with 21%), according to the Sutton Trust report.
A survey of 2,394 schoolchildren aged 11 to 16 in England and Wales found that 30% said they have had private tuition, up from 27% pre-pandemic.
