No, it's up to the tutoring provider how much they charge. The DfE has assumed an average cost of £18 per hour (blended across one-to-one and small group tuition) and as such will fund 60% of the cost of tuition up to this price. Schools are free to spend above or below this assumed average; where schools spend less than £18 per hour the DfE will still only cover 60% of the cost, where schools spend more they will need to cover more than 60% out of their own budgets (e.g. pupil premium). Because all Third Space Learning tuition is delivered online via our global tutor community, we’ve been able to provide one-to-one tuition for the price many other providers charge for small group sessions.
