His former school described him as a "born entertainer".
Writing on Instagram, Matty said it was a moment he had dreamed about since he was the age of five and the fact it "has actually happened is blowing my mind!"
He added: "Please tune in and show your support on Saturday 28th September (next Saturday) on ITV + ITVX at 8.15pm and one more massive thankyou to everyone, thanks for being on this journey with me ❤️ Matty X"
In a post on social media, St Cuthberts wished their ex-pupil good luck: "Well done to one of our ex-students Matty Scott who will be appearing on The Voice next Saturday 28th of September!
"Anyone who knows Matty will know that he loves to sing and is a born entertainer. So let's get behind him and tune in!"
