The school offers a personalized curriculum that combines academic learning, vocational training, and personal development. We are committed to helping every student overcome barriers to learning and achieve their full potential.

The Role
We are looking for a dedicated and passionate Tutor to join our team.

• Foster positive and supportive relationships with students, encouraging both their academic and personal growth.
• Work alongside teachers and support staff to ensure the best outcomes for students.
• Create an inclusive and safe learning environment where students feel motivated to learn.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have:

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent, or relevant tutoring experience.
• A passion for working with students with SEND and the ability to adapt lessons to suit their needs.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport with students.
• Patience, empathy, and a flexible approach to teaching.
• Experience working in a special education setting (desirable but not essential).
• A commitment to student success and continuous professional development.

Why Join Us?

• Work in a supportive and collaborative team environment.
• Receive competitive pay and opportunities for professional development.
• Help students build the confidence and skills they need for future success.
