Esland Bedford School are seeking an Alternative Provision Tutor to work 1:1 with selected school pupils through the school’s internal Alternative Provision offer.

Our school is an independent SEMH special school for up to 70 children aged 8-18. The school provides education to day pupils, and via our unique Turning the Curve provision, to young people who have been disengaged from education for significant periods of time.

We aim to maintain a nurturing and accepting environment for young people who have not had their needs met in other settings. Likewise, we also aim to provide a work/life balance to staff not available in larger schools.

The Role

We are seeking candidates with experience of working 1:1 with pupils away from a classroom environment, planning and delivering activities aimed at re-engaging young people with a history of school non-attendance or disengagement.

The role goes beyond academic tutoring and is suitable to candidates who have experience working in the alternative provision space or non-school settings.

  • Delivering ½ day AP sessions, including away from school site, to referred pupils
  • Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people
  • Liaising with the Senior Leadership Team to ensure pupils who are identified as being in need of support receive appropriate support
  • Taking part in any relevant meetings to assist with pupil welfare e.g. review meetings with parents/carers and external agencies
  • Feedback and liaison with parents where applicable
  • Feedback and liaison with teachers and other support staff
  • Feedback and liaison with Senior Leadership Team (SLT).

The nature of the role is such that flexibility and self-motivation are crucial to success.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
