Governance

Peer Tutor Your Classmates

8 weeks · 3 milestones

Help at least 2 classmates consistently over 6 weeks or more — one-on-one or in a small group. You have no authority to make them show up; they come back because the sessions are useful. Keep a session log and get a short note from your teacher, tutor coordinator, or tutee confirming the sessions happened and helped. Proof is the log plus the attestation.

Milestone map

3 milestones

Choose at least two classmates you will tutor — they should be in the same subject or skill area and have a genuine gap you can help with. Ask them directly whether they want help, and make sure they understand this is voluntary: they are not obliged to come back after any session. Arrange the first session at a time and place that works for them, not just for you. Before the session happens, inform your teacher, tutor coordinator, or subject teacher that the arrangement is in place. The adult does not need to attend the session — they just need to know it is happening so they can confirm it in milestone 3.

Proof required

Submit: (1) the names or initials of the 2+ classmates you will tutor and the subject or topic area, (2) the date and location of your first confirmed session, and (3) the name and role of the teacher or coordinator who is aware of the arrangement.

What gets checked

At least two distinct tutees are identified — tutoring one person does not meet the standard; the GOVERNANCE element of this outcome requires managing multiple voluntary relationships simultaneously
Subject or skill area is named specifically — 'helping with school' does not pass; 'Year 8 maths — fractions and algebra' or 'GCSE Biology — cell biology unit' does
A responsible adult (teacher, coordinator, subject teacher) is named and aware — the adult confirmation in milestone 3 depends on this; if no adult knows about the arrangement now, milestone 3 cannot be completed
