Job description

Prospero Teaching is currently recruiting for tutors in Wakefield!

At Prospero, we work with local authorities to arrange 1:1 tuition for students accessing alternative provision.

What will you be tutoring?

The vast majority of our tuition referrals are for English and Maths. A lot of our students are working below expected age range, and the delivery of learning will be at a KS1 - KS3 level.

Here’s an example role we have available at the moment!

Location: WF4, within the student’s home.

Start Date: ASAP.

End Date: Ongoing.

Hours: 30 hours per week.

Pay: GBP20 - GBP30 per hour.

The Role: English and Maths tuition for a Year 2 student working below ARE. Experience with SEN is desired!

When and where will you be tutoring?

Our tuitions can be held in a number of places:

• Within schools
• Within public places
• Within students homes

At all of the above locations, there will always be an appropriate adult present for your tuition sessions. This will be the student’s parent, carer, or guardian, meaning you'll never be left alone with a student.

Our tuitions take place within school hours, 9am-4pm, and our clients are very flexible on timings. When a role becomes available, we’ll come to you as the tutor to set timings for when you’d like to take on the hours.

What qualifications do you need?

With our tuition roles, you do not need to be a qualified teacher. We usually ask that you have some form of higher education.

We’d also expect candidates to have some prior experience within education; at least 4 months working in a school or educational setting. This could be as a teacher, teaching assistant, or in a pastoral or support role.

How do I get started?

To get started as a tutor, you’ll need to register with Prospero Teaching!

Our registration process is simple and can be broken down into a few steps:

1. Complete our registration form.
2. Have a short interview with one of our team members!
3. Work through compliance to make sure we have all your required documents and vetting checks complete.
4. Get started within a role!

Our registration process ensures that we are following safer recruitment guidelines and safeguarding the students that we work with. Below are the minimum requirement documents you will need to get registered with us:

• Hold Right to Work within the UK (Please note, as a recruitment agency, we cannot register people with Sponsorship Visas).
• An enhanced DBS registered on the update service (recommended but not required, as you can apply for a DBS through us).
• References covering 2 years (a full 24 months) of employment, as well as references for any work that you’ve had with children or vulnerable adults within the last two years.
