We are looking for a tutor who can deliver AQA English Language and Literature GCSE to small groups of young people who are at risk of exclusion. This is a fixed-term role in the first instance but for a successful candidate there may be the opportunity to extend this.
Our school is based in Levenshulme and caters for up to 45 students aged 11 - 16 who have been excluded from their mainstream school. The large majority of our students have social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. Successful candidates would therefore need to have strong behaviour management skills and be able to implement our behaviour management policy at all times.
The school was inspected by Ofsted in December 2024 and judged to be 'Good' in all areas.
Students are taught in small groups of up to eight and are given personalised support with the intention of reintegrating them back into mainstream schooling. Our tutors will need to be able to demonstrate empathy, resilience and relentless optimism for our pupils at all times. You do not necessarily need have a teaching qualification, but experience of working with young people is essential.
Your contracted hours will be 8.30 until 3 pm weekdays.
More details about our organisation can be found by visiting www.mvla.co.uk. If you are interested in applying for this role, please submit a covering letter of application outlining the skills and experience that you have that are relevant to the position, along with the reasons that you would like to work with us.
Successful appointments are subject to receiving satisfactory employment checks including references and a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) Enhanced check. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.
