Job Description

Start Date: September 2026

Please note: Applicants must already have the right to work in the UK. Unfortunately, visa sponsorship is not available for these opportunities.

Quantum Scholars is proud to have been approved onto Herefordshire Council's Alternative Provision Framework and is preparing for a significant increase in learner referrals across Ledbury and the surrounding areas from September 2026.

We are looking for compassionate and dedicated Outreach Tutors to provide one-to-one support for children and young people who are unable to access mainstream education due to a range of additional needs.

The young people we support may have:

• SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities)
• SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs)
• Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)
• ADHD
• Anxiety and other mental health needs
• Trauma and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs)
• Medical needs
• Behavioural challenges
• Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA)

As an Outreach Tutor, you will deliver personalised, face-to-face learning and mentoring sessions that are tailored to each learner's individual needs. This may include:

• One-to-one tuition across core or specialist subjects
• SEND and SEMH interventions
• Academic, social and emotional support
• EOTAS (Education Otherwise Than At School) provision
• Alternative Provision support
• Confidence-building and learner engagement activities

Sessions are typically delivered in a learner's home or within an appropriate community setting, allowing you to provide flexible, individualised support that helps young people re-engage with education.

We are particularly looking for tutors who can work in Ledbury, Colwall, Bosbury, Wellington Heath, Eastnor, Bromsberrow, and the wider surrounding areas, with ongoing referrals expected throughout the academic year.

We're keen to hear from individuals with experience as:

• Outreach Tutors
• SEND Tutors
• SEMH Tutors
• Teachers
• Learning Support Assistants (LSAs)
• Teaching Assistants
• Behaviour Mentors
• Youth Workers
• Pastoral Support Staff
• SEND Support Workers

You should have:

• Experience supporting children or young people with SEND and/or SEMH needs
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• A patient, empathetic and adaptable approach
• Previous experience in tutoring, teaching, mentoring, youth work or SEND support
• An Enhanced DBS certificate (or willingness to obtain one)
• The ability to travel within Ledbury and surrounding areas
• A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (highly desirable due to the location of many learner referrals)

• Flexible working opportunities to fit around your availability
• Ongoing learner referrals throughout the academic year
• September 2026 start with continued work available
• Rewarding one-to-one outreach tutoring opportunities
• Competitive rates of pay, dependent on experience
• The opportunity to make a lasting impact on a young person's education, wellbeing and future

If you're passionate about helping children and young people overcome barriers to education and thrive through personalised learning, we'd love to hear from you.

Join Quantum Scholars and help transform the educational journeys of young people across Ledbury and the surrounding areas.
