Are you a Key Stage 2 teacher looking for a more flexible, purposeful way to teach — one that puts connection before curriculum and supports children who need it most?

We’re looking for caring and experienced KS2 educators in St Helens to work one‑to‑one with pupils currently outside of mainstream education. You’ll support academic progress, emotional well‑being, and, when appropriate, provide guidance around SATS preparation and transition to secondary school.

Teaching takes place in calm, low‑pressure environments such as students’ homes, local libraries, or community centres — allowing you to focus fully on each child’s needs without the noise of a crowded classroom.

• The freedom to teach in a relational, individualised way
• Restore your work‑life balance while doing work that matters

• Deliver bespoke 1:1 sessions in core subjects (English, Maths, and more)
• Support SATS preparation when needed, and help pupils feel ready for secondary school
• Create a safe, nurturing space where each child can re‑engage with learning
• Use trauma‑informed, relationship‑led approaches to build trust and confidence
• Work closely with families and professionals to support long‑term success

• Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent
• Have experience teaching in Key Stage 2, particularly Years 5 and 6
• Understand how to support pupils with SEND, SEMH, or EBSA
• Are patient, empathetic, and adaptable to different learning styles
