SEND Tutor & Learning Mentor (EOTAS)
Location: Wokingham & Surrounding Areas Hours: Flexible Hours Available | Part-Time & Full-Time Opportunities
Important Note: Applicants must already have the right to work in the UK. Sponsorship is not available for this role.
Immediate work is available for successful candidates, with a significant increase in opportunities expected from September 2026 as our EOTAS and alternative provision programmes continue to expand. We are actively building our team ahead of the new academic year and can offer both ongoing and long-term placements.
Are you currently working as a Teaching Assistant, Learning Support Assistant or SEND Support Worker and looking for a role that offers greater flexibility, variety and autonomy?
As a 1:1 SEND Tutor and Learning Mentor, you will work directly with individual students who are unable to attend mainstream school, providing personalised tuition and educational support tailored to their individual needs.
Quantum Scholars is recruiting SEND Tutors and Learning Mentors to deliver one-to-one SEND tuition and support for children and young people receiving Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) provision across Wokingham and the surrounding areas.
Working as part of our growing EOTAS provision, you will support students with a wide range of needs and backgrounds. This is a highly rewarding role where you can make a genuine impact by helping young people rebuild confidence, engage with learning and achieve positive outcomes.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What Makes This Role Different?
- Unlike a traditional school setting, you will work individually with students, allowing you to build strong relationships and tailor support to each learner's specific needs.
- This role is particularly well suited to school-based LSAs and TAs who would enjoy working with a diverse range of students while benefiting from greater flexibility and autonomy.
- Opportunities are available from a few hours per week through to full-time timetables, depending on your availability and preferred workload.
Our students may be of primary or secondary age and can present with:
- Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)
- Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs
- Trauma-related difficulties
- Anxiety and emotionally based school avoidance
- Medical needs
- Learning difficulties and additional educational needs
Sessions are typically delivered within the student's home environment, with a parent or carer present throughout.
Your Responsibilities
- Delivering personalised 1:1 SEND tuition and learning support
- Helping students develop confidence, resilience and engagement with learning
- Adapting activities to suit individual needs and learning styles
- Supporting literacy, numeracy and wider curriculum areas where appropriate
- Encouraging positive routines and learning behaviours
- Building supportive and professional relationships with students and families
- Recording progress and providing updates to Quantum Scholars
