Quick overview
Job description
You'll work with vulnerable young people, one at a time, on their terms - none of the teaching-at-scale trade-off, less admin, just one person and the part of teaching you care about. We're recruiting experienced SEND tutors in Gloucestershire, £28 - £35 per hour, for one-to-one tuition with children and young people who've fallen out of mainstream education, or never been properly served by it.
What you get
- Flexible schedule: Most placements are a few sessions a week (time-limited part-time engagements), with more hours sometimes available. Work not guaranteed; you choose your placements.
- Work from home: Planning, prep, and reporting from home; hybrid placements available.
- Tes CPD access: Unlimited Tes professional development library, plus our own SEMH-focused courses.
- Specialist team behind you: SENDCos, Designated Safeguarding Leads, senior special-school leaders, and experienced tutors.
- Community events: Online drop-ins, knowledge-sharing sessions, and a real tutor community.
How we work
We meet each young person where they are - engagement before attainment, child-led. We match, we don't dictate. Trauma-informed tuition that's transformative, not a gap filler - trusted by Local Authorities and schools across the UK.
Day to day
- One-to-one tuition in English, Maths, or Science to children aged 4-18, referred by Local Authorities and schools.
- Sessions typically 1-2 hours, in-person - often in the home, sometimes in school or a community setting, occasionally hybrid, usually within school hours.
- Most learners have SEMH, ADHD, ASC, MLD, SLD, or other SEND needs; many are out of school or at risk of being so.
- Per-session reports supported by templates and your SEND Support Specialist.
You'll need
- Experience: 2+ years' teaching or tutoring, including substantial hands-on work with SEMH, ADHD, ASC, MLD, SLD, or other SEND needs.
- Qualification: QTS or QTLS, or an equivalent specialist teaching qualification.
- Subjects: Confidence teaching English, Maths, or Science at one or more Key Stages.
- Safeguarding: It is a strict requirement that you have the ability to work in a way that promotes the safety and wellbeing of children and young people.
- Compliance: Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this) and two professional references.
- Right to work: UK-based with right to work in the UK.
Invoicing and payments
Paid monthly via an auto-generated invoice you approve in our tutor portal.
Applying
- Apply in under 5 minutes via our mobile-optimised form.
- We interview on a rolling basis and respond to successful applicants within 2 weeks.
- Safer recruitment applies; we welcome tutors from every background and want our network to reflect the communities our learners come from.
- Our referral / introducer scheme pays a fee to anyone who recommends a tutor who goes on to complete a first lesson.
You may have worked as
SENDCo (Special Educational Needs Coordinator), SEND Teacher, Special Needs Teacher, Special Needs Tutor, 1:1 Tutor, Home Tutor, Alternative Provision Tutor, Reintegration Tutor, Intervention Specialist, Inclusion Coordinator, or a mainstream / class teacher including Maths, English or Science with SEND experience.
Not a permanent or salaried position; you are not an employee of Targeted Provision. Self-employed, freelance contract for services.
