SEND/SEMH Functional Skills Tutor – Ledbury (Alternative Provision & EOTAS)
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 unable to access mainstream education.
We are currently looking for experienced and compassionate SEND/SEMH Functional Skills Tutors across Ledbury to provide 1:1 tuition and support for pupils requiring Alternative Provision or EOTAS (Education Otherwise Than at School). This role is delivered in person, either within pupils’ homes or in community settings such as libraries. This is not an online role.
We are receiving consistent referrals from Herefordshire Council for tuition beginning in September and are looking to build a team of dedicated tutors who are passionate about making a genuine difference in the lives of young people.
Tuition will be tailored to each pupil’s individual needs and may cover a range of subjects, including English, Maths, Science, and other curriculum areas. Tutors with a subject specialism are particularly encouraged to apply.
