We enable local campaigns to grow into large-scale social change projects such as the Living Wage Foundation, Parent Action, and Sponsor Refugees, that form an integral part of our theory of change.

We’re seeking excellent teachers who want to enjoy a completely different way of working!
Our Outreach teachers support students who aren’t currently able to attend school, for example because of mental or physical health needs or challenges in previous schools.
This is a mobile role which requires flexibility; you and a Teaching Assistant will work from a designated space in the family home, or at a local library, and offer personalised education for each student. Our ideal candidate is inclusive and uses the child as the starting point to plan an engaging and suitable curriculum which helps each child to meet their EHCP outcomes and grow academically too.
We work hard to match the right student with the right teacher and Teaching Assistant; you may be an expert with students in a particular age group (our students range from 6 to 16), subject, or enjoy working with students who have particular needs such as SEMH, hearing impairments or Autism Spectrum Condition. Almost all of our students have EHCPs, though their needs are quite varied. Our students benefit from creative approaches to learning so you can have fun with how to you teach!
Because of their vulnerabilities and often disrupted learning experiences, our students need a caring approach and our work is underpinned by the principles of Attachment Theory. To flourish in this role you must care about children and believe that every child deserves the best opportunity to achieve their potential, whatever that looks like.
The ideal candidate will also be able to develop positive relationships with parents and carers. Experience working with students with SEND or in a Special School is advantageous but not essential.
We are happy to be flexible; you may want to work every day, or only a few hours per week!
We can offer you:
- Flexibility; you may want to work every day, or only a few hours per week!
- High levels of support and care from our school, which is rated Good
- The chance to work independently
- 1:1 teaching means your marking load is low
- No break duties!
- The chance to give children what they need, by helping them with their personal and academic development. We aim high for students, but aren’t just measuring our success in terms of exam results. We want our children to be happy, independent and capable.
- The chance to make a real tangible difference for some of the children who need it the most
