About the Setting
Our tuition opportunities can vary considerably, from supporting pupils who require additional help to catch up with their peers, through to more individualised provision for pupils with SEND or those who are currently unable to access a mainstream classroom setting.
Assignments cover KS1, KS2, KS3, KS4 and KS5, and each placement is different. We will discuss the specific requirements, setting, pupil needs and expectations with you before you start.
