Job Description

Are you passionate about supporting children and young people with additional needs through a personalised, nurturing approach to education?

Quantum Scholars is seeking compassionate, adaptable, and engaging SEN Tutors to provide tailored 1:1 support for pupils accessing alternative provision across Wokingham and the wider Berkshire area.

This is a highly rewarding opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people by helping them overcome barriers to learning, build confidence, and re-engage positively with education.

We welcome applications from experienced tutors, teachers, learning mentors, SEN specialists, youth workers, pastoral staff, HLTAs, TAs, and other professionals with experience supporting children and young people with additional needs.

You will deliver personalised 1:1 tuition and intervention support to primary and secondary-aged pupils who are currently unable to access mainstream education.

Many of the learners we support may have needs relating to:

• SEND
• Autism (ASC)
• ADHD
• SEMH needs
• Behavioural challenges
• School refusal and anxiety
• Medical needs

Sessions take place during school hours and are delivered either in the pupil's home or within suitable community settings.

• Deliver engaging and tailored 1:1 tutoring sessions
• Support pupils academically, socially, and emotionally
• Build positive and trusting relationships with young people
• Help students develop confidence, resilience, and engagement in learning
• Adapt teaching methods and resources to meet individual needs
• Provide support in core subjects, including English and Maths
• Encourage structure, routine, and positive learning habits

• Flexible part-time opportunities to fit around your availability
• Meaningful work where you can see the impact of your support firsthand
• The chance to work outside of a traditional classroom setting
• Varied and rewarding assignments across Wokingham and Berkshire
• Greater flexibility and autonomy than many school-based roles

• Experience supporting children or young people with SEND and additional needs
• Strong behaviour management and relationship-building skills
• A patient, resilient, and adaptable approach
• Previous experience in tutoring, teaching, mentoring, youth work, intervention, or pastoral support
• An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to obtain one)
• Full Right to Work in the UK
• Ability to travel to in-person sessions across Wokingham and surrounding areas

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and formal teaching qualifications are desirable but not essential. A degree in a relevant subject area would be advantageous.

Please note: Unfortunately, we are unable to offer Skilled Worker visa sponsorship for this position.

If you are passionate about helping young people with additional needs overcome barriers to education and are looking for a flexible role where you can make a lasting impact, we would love to hear from you.
