Launched in 2008, Manning’s Tutors set out to narrow the education gap by providing high quality, affordable tuition, purchased by schools and provided to those who need and deserve the support, rather than simply those who can afford it.   


Johnny has grown this agency to 300+ tutors working with approximately 100 secondary schools nationwide, and was selected as one of the 32 providers to deliver the government’s Covid catch-up National Tutoring Programme.


Beyond Manning’s regular tuition activities, Johnny looks for opportunities to support more widely.  Moved by the events of the 2017 Grenfell Fire, Manning’s provided a programme of free tuition to the pupils affected.  In 2018 Manning’s Horizons launched, offering disadvantaged pupils a combined ski-and-tutoring trip to Pila, Italy.  

Johnny is also a freeman of the Company of Entrepreneurs, a member of The Tutors' Association and a NED for Reach 2 Academy Trust.

Explore Learning now employs nearly 4,000 people, supporting the learning   and development of hundreds of thousands of children over the years both in dedicated centres and online.
