1:1 SEND Tutor – Kington & Surrounding Areas
Alternative Provision & EOTAS
Location: Kington and surrounding areas
Job Type: Part-Time, Flexible
Start Date: September
Delivery: Face-to-face, 1:1 tuition
Quantum Scholars is proud to be an approved provider on Herefordshire Council’s Alternative Provision Framework, working closely with the local authority to support children and young people who are currently unable to access mainstream education.
We are currently looking for experienced and compassionate SEND Tutors in Kington and the surrounding areas to provide personalised, one-to-one tuition to pupils accessing Alternative Provision or EOTAS (Education Otherwise Than At School).
This is a face-to-face 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 and are looking to build a team of dedicated tutors who can provide consistent, engaging and individualised educational support to pupils with a range of SEND and SEMH needs.
The Role
As a 1:1 SEND Tutor, you will work closely with individual pupils to help them re-engage with education, build confidence and make meaningful academic progress.
Tuition will be tailored to each pupil’s individual needs and may include English, Maths, Science, Functional Skills and other curriculum areas, depending on the pupil’s requirements.
