Spanish term or phrase: apoyos escolares
From the context, this cannot be "tutors", I don't think. What makes more sense is community organizations that provide students with academic support...is there a more precise term for that in English?

En el transcurso de las vacaciones de invierno y verano, el equipo educativo del museo desarrolla propuestas dirigidas a apoyos escolares, comedores, colonias de vacaciones, juegotecas y organizaciones barriales para proponer diferentes actividades vinculadas con el arte.

School support refers to the providing of school services, the infraestructure. Educational support is the supporting of children's schooling and learning process, as Wilson correctly states. Educational support is a short way of saying it. For example, it can be clearly seen here:

school suppoprt projects


Explanation:
From my experience apoyos represents any kind of work towards helping in any certain area. Helps projects, is a good concise translation. It could mean actual moneys allocated in a certain area, or programs funded through those moneys.

Example sentence(s):
  • Apoyos Complementarios para la Adquisición de Equipo Científico.
