Out of School Tuition (OOST) is seeking to recruit qualified teachers to add to our register to work in all areas of Derbyshire.

We are seeking teachers with the ability to deliver teaching in the core subjects of maths, science and English at all key stages. Knowledge and experience of working with children who have SEND would also be beneficial.

We work with children who are out of school because of medical needs, including mental health needs, who can present some challenging behaviour and who may have an EHCP. The role requires excellent communication skills, good organisation and the ability to engage and motivate children to learn, with the aim of reintegrating them back into school. Most of the work is on a 1 : 1 basis and would usually take place in the child's home, or in schools or other suitable venues or may be through the use of remote platforms and could include some online delivery. Therefore, it has become important to be able to establish a good rapport through remote communication.

A telephone is essential, as is the ability to travel independently within a reasonable distance from your home if delivering in person tuition. We require our tutors to have a good knowledge of ICT, and to have their own laptop or similar device. You will be expected to attend relevant training and you will be supported with your cases by an Area Senior Tutor to ensure a strong safeguarding response to the children and families we support.

This role does not provide any guaranteed hours of work as it is dependent on fluctuating referrals from schools.
