The Role: Empowering Potential

Randstad is proud to partner with a variety of schools across the region to provide specialist tutoring for SEN pupils. This isn't just about academic support; it's about breaking down barriers to learning and helping students exceed their own expectations of what they can achieve.

You will work closely with students-both face-to-face and online-following individual EHCP plans to build their core knowledge while significantly boosting their confidence and self-esteem.


What's in it for you?

Being a Randstad Tutor offers the ultimate balance between a rewarding career and personal flexibility:

  • Total Flexibility: Manage your own timetable and workload to suit your lifestyle.

  • Variety: Choose between delivering tuition online or in-person.

  • Professional Growth: Access to free e-learning modules and a dedicated online delivery platform.

  • Consistency: Opportunities for year-round work, including school holiday tuition.

  • Impact: A genuine opportunity to drive measurable, life-changing outcomes for pupils.


Key Responsibilities
  • Tailored Tuition: Delivering engaging 1:1 or small group sessions (up to 1:6) that cater to a range of learning styles.

  • Strategic Planning: Creating lesson plans aligned with EHCP objectives and students' specific interests.

  • Progress Tracking: Assessing student development and recording attainment levels via our internal reporting system.

  • Collaboration: Working alongside schools, foster carers, and social workers to ensure a holistic support network.

  • Safeguarding: Operating strictly in accordance with KCSIE and safeguarding guidelines.


Who are we looking for?

We want to hear from inspiring QTS/NQTs, Teaching Assistants (Level 1-3), HLTAs, or Graduates eager to start a career in education.

Essential Qualities:

  • At least 6 months of experience working with SEN, disengaged youth, or within alternative provisions.

  • The ability to manage challenging behaviours with patience and empathy.

  • Strong IT competency (laptop/computer access and stable broadband for online sessions).

  • A valid DBS on the Update Service (or a willingness to acquire one).

  • An inspirational communication style that motivates and encourages students.
