Morpeth, United Kingdom Maximize Education Full time

**School**:
Maximize Education is a daytime and evening tuition centre on Newgate Street in Morpeth, with a passion for nurturing knowledge and maximising success. We provide 1:1 teaching during the school day (between 9 and 4) for students in KS3-KS5 who are out of mainstream education for a variety of reasons. We are currently working on the exciting prospect of becoming a registered Alternative Provision and work closely with Northumberland County Council to reintegrate disengaged pupils throughout the area.

**Culture**:
At Maximize, we believe in creating a safe, relaxed, familial and productive environment where pupils of varying backgrounds, abilities and needs can work 1:1 with staff committed to providing tailored, bespoke sessions. We are a close-knit team and our current project means we are looking to recruit tutors, teachers and teaching assistants to join the expansion of our centre. Supported by an on-site Designated Safeguarding Lead, our staff follow the English National Curriculum and prepare students for GCSE examinations, as well as Functional Skills and other independent qualifications, to help them achieve their potential.
