We are keen to hear from tutors who can offer individualised learning support and make a positive difference to pupils' educational progress. You will work with learners who may need extra academic guidance, help catching up with missed learning, preparation for important examinations or a teaching approach that better suits their individual circumstances.

Assignments will involve one-to-one tuition in pupils' homes, schools or alternative education environments.

• Help pupils improve their understanding and performance in relevant subjects.
• Create structured learning activities and accessible teaching materials.

• Review learning outcomes and record pupils' progress.
• Develop pupils' confidence, engagement and independent study skills.
• Offer appropriate support to children with SEND and additional behavioural or emotional needs.
• Work collaboratively with families, schools and other professionals.
• Ensure safeguarding policies and procedures are followed throughout all assignments.
