The only thing I’ve really done of note this week is speak to another charity who have asked us to advertise a few voluntary tutoring positions in the voluntary section of our new students page. I didn’t really anticipate receiving many of these requests when I set the system up a few months ago, but apparently this organisation (the Social Mobility Foundation) found out about us because some of our tutors told them that we might be able to help. The set up is very similar the voluntary tutoring we’ve done before: the students will be in London, and are all from poor backgrounds. They have all been identified as potential high achievers, and our tutors are wanted to help the students through their A Levels.
Other than that I’ve just been doing more programming, which is starting to become a theme. I’ve also been really working through categorising the disciplines of our tutors, and that’s going well, but, as I’ve said before, just takes absolutely ages.
