- Delivering targeted academic interventions across core subjects on a 1:1 and small group basis
- Identifying gaps in student knowledge and adapting sessions accordingly
- Tracking and monitoring student progress and feeding back to subject teachers
- Supporting students working below age-related expectations across KS3 and KS4
- Liaising with heads of department and the SENCO to ensure a joined-up approach
- Upholding safeguarding responsibilities at all times
What we're looking for:

- Experience delivering interventions or tutoring in a school setting
- Patient, structured, and confident working with students who find learning challenging
- Ability to motivate and re-engage students who have disengaged from academic work
- Enhanced DBS on the Update Service
