Job description

The Opportunity

One of your aims will be to support and re-engage a pupil in their learning, offer structure back into their daily routine, continue their educational development, and return to school.

The tuition is replacing school for these young people and is normally part‑time, taking place during school hours, five days a week. Prospero will work with you closely to monitor the progression of each pupil by asking you to submit weekly reports.
