Point 15 - 22: £19,289 - £22,167 (Actual Salary)

Starting as soon as possible

We are looking to appoint a Community Tutor to take up post as soon as possible. The Community Tutor fulfils an important role in ensuring continuity of education for children struggling to access their mainstream education available on the Academy site. The role will involve providing tutoring for vulnerable students based in Ramsey House, the internal alternative provision facility, daily. At times, students may require tuition outside the Academy site, whether it is at the child’s home or an alternative location. The Community Tutor will provide specialist, high quality tuition and will serve as the essential link between the child, parent and Academy to enable learning, progress and hopefully achieve a full-time return to mainstream education.

Spencer Academies Trust is an educational charity and academy sponsor, which is committed to ensuring that every child, regardless of background, has access to an outstanding education and real choices in life. We have a successful track record of providing high quality teaching and learning which ensures improved outcomes for children and young people. The Trust mission statement reflects our vision and aim for all Trust schools. Our highly-successful network of 17 schools (8 Secondary and 9 Primary) educates students across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Nottingham City, Derby City and Leicestershire.

Vision:

Spencer Academies Trust is an exceptional Trust, which provides an outstanding education for local children. Our Trust is a model of national excellence. We work collaboratively to achieve the best possible outcomes for all young people, in an environment where partnership is valued, and success is celebrated. Our education delivers real life experiences for students, promotes independent enquiry and stimulates intellectual curiosity whilst developing a strong sense of individual responsibility and a personal belief and confidence. All of our students fulfil their potential and make unparalleled progress. They are fully prepared for the next phase of their education and have unrivalled opportunities to become future leaders.

We Believe:

  • All children have a right to a quality education regardless of background or ability and have an entitlement to the opportunity of a secure progression route in their learning and development
  • Schools are stronger when they work in collaboration with each other, operate within a ‘family’ and are open to a true sense of partnership
  • We grow the effectiveness and sustainability of our schools by developing the people within them, and that through shared and equitable responsibility for quality and outcomes; we achieve more

Applicants would be expected to share the Trust’s high aspirations and expectations for students and staff.
