The National Tutoring Awards 2026 shortlist has officially been revealed – and what a year it has been already for the tuition sector!
Following an incredibly competitive judging process, we are delighted to celebrate the tutors, tuition businesses, online schools, partners, suppliers, and organisations who have been shortlisted this year. The standard of entries in 2026 was exceptionally high. Judges repeatedly commented on the quality, depth, and impact demonstrated across the applications.
This year’s applications showcased the extraordinary work happening across the tuition sector every single day – from transformational SEND support and innovative technology tools, through to outstanding tutoring, tuition businesses, alternative provision, safeguarding leadership, and specialist educational services. While only a limited number of applicants could be shortlisted, the judging panel recognised that many exceptionally strong applications narrowly missed out in what was one of the most competitive years to date.
You can now catch up on the full Shortlist Reveal Party here.
We would like to say a huge congratulations to everyone shortlisted, alongside a heartfelt thank you to every individual and organisation who took the time to apply this year!
