Tutor in Cannock

In-Person Tutor – Supporting School-Refusing Students (Cannock, Staffordshire) £20–£30 per hour | Flexible Hours | Term-Time Only | SEN, SEMH & Behaviour Support Are you a compassionate, patient, and experienced educator who wants to make a real difference? We’re seeking dedicated In-Person Tutors to support children and young people who are currently unable to attend school due to special educational needs (SEN), behavioural challenges, or mental health difficulties. You’ll work with school-refusing students in a 1:1 setting, offering tailored academic support that helps them re-engage with learning and rebuild confidence. This is a highly rewarding role for those who want to change lives—one student at a time. What the Role Involves: * Deliver 1:1 tuition sessions during school hours (typically between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM, Monday to Friday). * Work with students out of school, often in their homes or community settings. * Support learners across key subjects (e.g., English, Maths, Science), using personalised and creative teaching methods. * Focus on rebuilding trust and engagement with learning, not just academics. * Communicate closely with parents/carers, schools, and support professionals to track and promote progress. * Log student outcomes and feedback clearly to support each learner’s journey. Hours, Pay & Flexibility: * £20–£30 per hour, depending on experience and assignment. * Most students receive 6–15 hours of tuition per week. * Work is scheduled during school hours, so your evenings and weekends are free. * Additional hours available if you’d like to work with more students. * Perfect for educators seeking flexible, meaningful part-time or term-time work. Who We’re Looking For: * Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) is required. * Experience teaching or tutoring children—especially those with SEN, SEMH, or behavioural needs. * Confidence working independently and managing a flexible timetable. * Strong communication skills with the ability to build trust and rapport with challenging learners. * Resilience, creativity, and patience—every student’s journey is different. * Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one) and safeguarding knowledge essential. * Driving licence and access to transport is often required. Why This Role Matters: Many of the students you’ll support have been out of school for months, even years. Your sessions may be their only consistent educational support. This isn’t just about teaching—it’s about showing up, believing in them, and helping them believe in themselves.
