SEMH Focused Tuition- Spennymoor in North East

The Opportunity

You will be supporting young people on a one-to-one or small group basis who are not currently accessing full-time mainstream education for a variety of reasons.

Many of our students may have been out of education for some time and may experience emotional, social, or behavioural barriers to learning. We are therefore seeking nurturing tutors with a patient, flexible, and consistent approach who can build positive relationships, manage challenging behaviour effectively, and support students to overcome barriers to learning.

Sessions will take place face to face, either in a community setting or at the young person's home.

Your role with us:

• Deliver one-to-one or small group tuition in Maths, English and Science to KS3 students.
• Develop and implement personalised lesson plans that address individual learning gaps and educational needs.
• Support students with behavioural difficulties to engage positively with learning and develop appropriate learning routines.
• Monitor student progress and adapt teaching approaches to meet individual needs.
• Create a safe, structured, and motivating learning environment to help students rebuild their confidence and develop positive attitudes towards education.
• Complete daily attendance records and weekly progress reports.

Role details:

• Pay rate up to 30 per hour, depending on qualifications and/or experience.
• Up to 6 hours per week per student.
• Start date: To be confirmed.
• Location: Spennymoor.
• Duration: Ongoing.
• Access to our Resource Hub, which includes learning materials.
• Access to CPD-accredited courses and training.

To be eligible for the Core Subjects Tutor role, you need:

• Previous experience working with young people with SEND, SEMH needs, ADHD, behavioural difficulties, or those who have been excluded from mainstream education. Experience working within a Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) or alternative provision would be highly beneficial.
• A patient, resilient, and adaptable approach, with the ability to build positive relationships and manage challenging behaviour effectively.
• Hold the right to work in the UK.
• Hold an enhanced child barred list DBS certificate registered with the online Update Service, or be willing to process a new application.
• Be able to provide references covering the last two years of education and/or employment.
