Quantum Scholars is expanding its Alternative Provision services across Somerset and is building a network of SEND Tutors, Mentors, LSAs, Teaching Assistants, Behaviour Mentors, Youth Workers, Pastoral Support Staff, and Support Workers across Taunton and the surrounding area. With a significant increase in referrals anticipated from September 2026, we are keen to hear from candidates who are looking to secure flexible and rewarding opportunities for the new academic year.
Many of the young people we support are currently unable to access mainstream education and may have needs relating to SEND, SEMH, autism, ADHD, anxiety, trauma, medical conditions, behavioural challenges, or EBSA (Emotionally Based School Avoidance). Whether you're an experienced SEND professional, a teacher looking for a new direction, or someone already supporting children and young people in another capacity, this is an opportunity to make a genuine difference through personalised 1:1 support.
Support is delivered on a 1:1 basis with both primary and secondary-aged learners, and we'll always aim to match you with the age groups and types of students you feel most confident supporting. Most sessions take place face-to-face in a student's home or within a suitable community setting, with occasional online opportunities where appropriate. Hours are flexible and vary according to your availability.
