Just over a third of students (37%) indicated that they did not have a tutor because it was too
expensive, with more year 13 students (46%) giving this reason than year 6 or year 11 (29%
and 36% respectively) (χ2 = 54.9, df=2, p< .001). Only 8% thought they would get teased at
school if they had a tutor, with more year 6 students giving this reason (14%), compared to
year 11 and year 13 students (5%) (χ2= 52.4, df = 2, p< .001).
