Alternative Provision Tutor

The Tutor Trust, in partnership with TLC Talk Listen Change, has won a £500K grant from the Department for Education’s Alternative Provision Innovation Fund (APIF) to boost the education outcomes of young people who are not in mainstream schooling, including Looked After Children.  The pupils will all be of Secondary school age, either KS3 or KS4.  

As part of this project we are creating a new role at Tutor Trust to work on this project – a ‘full-time’ or 'part-time' tutor,  to carry out tuition. You will carry out tuition on a one-to-one basis with children in alternative provision educational settings. The majority of sessions will take place in educational centres that we have partnered with (i.e. Pupil Referral Units), or in home. 

The collaboration between Tutor Trust and TLC will combine academic tuition and therapeutic support in ways that could be life-changing for young people in Greater Manchester, and scalable to the rest of the country.  We are thrilled to have this chance to pilot a truly joined-up approach to tackling the causes and the symptoms of under-achievement.  This is a two-year project, that launched in September 2018.
