Alternative Provision & EOTAS | Part-Time | September Start
Quantum Scholars is proud to be an approved provider on Herefordshire Council's Alternative Provision Framework, working closely with the local authority to support young people who are currently unable to access mainstream education.
We are currently recruiting for experienced and compassionate SEND/SEMH Tutors across Ross-on-Wye and the surrounding areas to provide personalised, one-to-one tuition and educational support to pupils accessing Alternative Provision or EOTAS (Education Otherwise Than At School).
This is an in-person role, with tuition delivered in pupils' homes or suitable community settings such as libraries. This is not an online tutoring position.
We are receiving regular referrals from Herefordshire Council for tuition commencing in September and are looking to build a team of dedicated tutors who are passionate about providing high-quality education and making a genuine difference to the lives of young people.
Tuition will be tailored to each pupil's individual needs, abilities and educational goals. Sessions may cover a range of curriculum areas, including English, Maths, Science and other subjects, with tutors who have a particular subject specialism especially encouraged to apply.
