Job description

Flexzo Teach | Sports & Engagement Mentor (Alternative Provision)


We connect passionate Sports Mentors with local educational provisions dedicated to high-quality, personalized support. Register today to join the local talent pool for an established, innovative alternative provision based in Didcot, Oxfordshire.


This setting supports young people aged 11–16 (primarily Years 9–11) who thrive outside of mainstream education. Many learners access this provision on reduced timetables due to Autism (ASC), ADHD, and complex social-emotional needs. If you are an adaptable, active, and approachable leader who values relationship-building over rigid processes, this supportive environment offers the perfect space to re-engage students through sports mentoring, boxing-based engagement, and physical activity.


Why Join Flexzo Teach?

  • Complete control over your schedule and availability.
  • Establish your own daily or hourly rates with full transparency.
  • Say goodbye to agency middlemen and payroll deductions; connect directly with alternative provisions.
  • Use your passion for fitness and sport to build discipline, confidence, and resilience in young people who benefit from specialized, non-traditional care.


What We Are Looking For

We are seeking a Sports & Engagement Mentor who possesses a genuine passion for supporting young people with SEND. For this role, your energy, coaching presence, and ability to build trusting relationships through physical activity are considered just as vital as formal teaching credentials.


Core Requirements:

  • A strong background or qualification in sports coaching, personal training, boxing instruction, or physical education.
  • Proven ability to use sport and exercise as a tool for behavior management, mentoring, and emotional regulation.
  • Ability to build positive, trusting relationships with disengaged, vulnerable, or highly energetic youth.
  • Strong communication, interpersonal skills, and an enthusiastic, proactive personality.
  • A patient, resilient, and highly adaptable approach to mentoring.
  • Confidence working with students displaying a range of additional needs (specifically Autism and ADHD).
  • A valid right to work in the UK and an Enhanced DBS check (or willingness to obtain one).


Desired Experience & Skills:

  • Experience working within an alternative provision, PRU, youth work, or a pastoral support background.
  • Experience running targeted, interest-led sports workshops or boxing-based mentoring programmes.
  • An understanding of trauma-informed and relationship-led approaches in a physical activity setting.
  • Experience supporting students working towards Functional Skills or GCSEs is advantageous.
  • A relevant coaching badge, fitness qualification, or teaching qualification (PGCE/QTS) is a plus.


How It Works

Once your application is received, the provision in the Didcot area can review your profile directly for upcoming term starts, flexible shift placements, or interviews.
