• Experience teaching or tutoring children or young people, in a classroom or 1:1
• Confidence planning Maths and/or English sessions in line with the national curriculum
• An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply (we'll support you)
• Patience, flexibility and a genuine interest in helping young people who find school difficult

It would be great if you also have

• QTS or another teaching qualification
• Experience supporting students with EHCPs or SEND

We welcome qualified teachers, experienced educators, SEN specialists and experienced tutors. If you’re not sure whether you’re a fit, apply anyway and we’ll talk it through.
