Please ensure you read the below overview and requirements for this employment opportunity completely.
Alternative Provision | EOTAS | Flexible Working | September 2026
Quantum Scholars is expanding its Alternative Provision services across Somerset and is looking to recruit dedicated 1:1 SEND Tutors to support learners across Bath and the surrounding areas.
With a significant increase in Education Otherwise Than at School (EOTAS) and Alternative Provision referrals expected from September 2026, we are seeking experienced, compassionate tutors who are passionate about helping children and young people with additional needs re-engage with education through personalised learning.
This is a rewarding opportunity to deliver tailored 1:1 tuition, helping learners build confidence, overcome barriers to learning, and make meaningful academic progress.
About The Role
As a 1:1 SEND Tutor, you will work with primary and secondary-aged pupils (5-16 years) who are currently unable to access mainstream education.
You will plan and deliver engaging, personalised lessons that are tailored to each learner's individual needs, abilities, and learning style. In addition to academic support, you'll help build confidence, develop positive learning habits, and create a safe, supportive environment where every learner can succeed.
