Home Tutors

**About us**: Aspire is an Alternative Provision spread over five sites in High Wycombe, Chesham and Aylesbury. Aspire provides 'outstanding' alternative educational provision and support for secondary age students who, for a variety of reasons, are unable to attend mainstream school. The Aspire Medical Provision supports those children and young people who are too unwell to attend their mainstream school. These students are referred by CAMHS or other medical professionals, with the support of their mainstream schools and/or the Local Authority. The Home Tuition Service is part of the Aspire Medical Provision and delivers education across Buckinghamshire. Our focus is to support young people to reach their potential and enable them to re-engage with, and maintain, their learning and ideally to reintegrate back into their mainstream school.

**About the role**: These are exciting times for education and Aspire is rising to the challenge and looking for qualified English teachers to join our Home Tuition Service. The Home Tuition Service supports those students who are referred as being medically unfit to attend school; this may be for a short-term period or, in some instances, the students may need longer term education at home. The Service operates in a number of ways - going to a child’s home and working on a 1:1 basis with the child; or/and working on a 1:1 or small group basis at an Aspire base or via remote learning.

You will be required to travel within the Buckinghamshire area working within the student’s home or at one of our school sites.

You will need to demonstrate the ability to work independently without direct supervision and have experience of a range of strategies to engage students with varying medical needs. You should have experience of working to support the needs of a diverse range of school-aged children.

You will need to mention the days on which you are available. This would suit teachers who are looking for a flexible working arrangement.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and education of our students and expect all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS check and references will be required along with the completion of a Health Questionnaire.

Aspire has been recognised by Ofsted as “Outstanding”. We are proud of our achievements and our students thrive in small teaching groups and a safe learning environment
