Tutorial Conference Logo New

Following the huge success of our first Tutorial Conference in 2026 we are delighted to be hosting a second event specifically aimed at managers and operational staff responsible for planning, running and measuring the impact of Tutorial Programmes.

This in-person event offers valuable networking opportunities, practical workshops, and expert-led discussions designed to provide delegates with really practical ideas, strategies and resources to take back to their own college.   It is also a great chance to meet peers from other organisations who experience the same challenges and understand the issues faced by Tutorial Teams across the UK.

Please take a look at the workshop choices before booking your tickets.

Our conference is sponsored by The Skills Network

While qualifications are important, it is often the wider skills that make the difference in helping young people secure employment and succeed in life. With employers, Ofsted and government increasingly expecting a more individualised approach, alongside a growing emphasis on tutorial, personal development and employability support, education and training providers face the challenge of meeting these expectations within the sector’s significant financial constraints.

Over the past year, we have seen our resources used to support learners across full-time and part-time programmes at all levels, preparation for adulthood provision and, increasingly, programmes designed to re-engage and support young people who are not in education, employment or training (NEET).

The Skills Network is proud to sponsor this event, which shines a spotlight on such a vital part of the learner journey at a time when getting this support right has never been more important.

Jody’s approach to learning uses teamwork, integrity, positiviy and laughter to nurture each individual, making the most of their todays to enable them to make even more of their tomorrows. 

Throughout his career, Jody has developed both individuals and teams and engaged with thousands of young people.  Jody firmly believes in ‘Learning for Life’ and that education is about lighting fires, not filling bottles. 

He passionately believes that every person has greatness within them and that the key to unlocking that potential is also held by the individual – It is these high expectations for each person he works with, that enable him to strike a chord and develop a fantastic supportive relationship.
