We are seeking individuals who can deliver engaging lessons, recognise individual learning challenges and help pupils make meaningful progress. Our tuition opportunities include supporting learners who need additional academic guidance, have missed significant periods of education or require specialist assistance outside a traditional classroom environment.

Teaching sessions may be arranged in pupils' homes, schools or alternative provision settings.

  • Help learners develop essential skills and improve their academic achievement.
  • Design suitable lesson plans and prepare stimulating learning materials.
  • Adapt teaching methods to suit different learning abilities and individual circumstances.
  • Evaluate pupil performance and maintain clear records of progress.
  • Build positive relationships and encourage confidence and independent learning.
  • Provide additional support to pupils with SEND and behavioural or emotional difficulties.
  • Communicate effectively with parents, schools and other relevant professionals.
  • Maintain a safe and supportive learning environment in line with safeguarding policies.

Subjects and Specialisms

We are particularly interested in tutors who can provide support in:

  • Primary English, Maths, Phonics and Reading.
  • Secondary English, Maths and Science.
  • GCSE preparation and subject-specific tuition.
  • Functional Skills, Literacy and Numeracy.
  • History, Geography and Humanities.
  • ICT, Computing and Modern Foreign Languages.

  • Strong communication, interpersonal and organisational skills.
  • Patience, flexibility and an understanding of individual learning differences.
  • The ability to travel to assignments across Towcester and surrounding areas.
  • An Enhanced DBS registered with the Update Service or willingness to obtain a new certificate.

Relevant teaching qualifications, including QTS or PGCE, are desirable but not essential.

Specialist SEND Background

We would particularly welcome applications from tutors with experience supporting learners with:

  • Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).
  • ADHD.
  • Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.
  • Dyslexia and dyspraxia.
  • Speech, language and communication difficulties.
  • Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance (EBSNA).
