The successful individual will be able to demonstrate:
- A physiotherapist qualification or be a registered nurse, with training in respiratory practice.
- Experience in identifying what matters to patients and to then deliver a patient orientated, community focused service.
- Confidence in teaching patients, in 1-2-1 or in group settings, exercises and techniques to improve symptoms.
- Experience in building relationships and partnerships with other key stakeholders.
- Knowledge of digital software advantageous – to work with others and create virtual teaching videos for patients.
- Must be able to travel.
For this exciting role we are seeking a proactive, self-motivated individual, who is confident working independently as well as collaborating with external consultants and hospice teams.

About the Role
The Access Project is pleased to recruit for an exciting opportunity; we are looking for experienced tutors with a love of learning to support disadvantaged students to reach their full academic potential whilst still earning a competitive market rate for their tuition expertise.
As part of our continued commitment to help our students attain highly at A Level we are undertaking a new pilot programme matching experienced and high quality tutors with small groups of students already enrolled on our core programme. Tutors that deliver the pilot will have tutored professionally at A Level previously and have a strong association with our mission to widen access to top Universities. They will relish delivering meaningful social impact whilst being paid at rate commensurate with their level of experience.
Who are we?
We support students from disadvantaged backgrounds to access top universities, through a unique combination of tuition and in-school mentoring. We work with them to make good applications, get the grades and transition to university. Our results show this approach works.
Our students perform better than their peers academically, and independent analysis by UCAS has shown that students on our programme are four times as likely to get into a top university as similar peers. Our ambition is to reach more young people whilst maintaining this exceptionally high impact.
The Access Project (TAP) currently works in London and the East and West Midlands. We have a growing team working in schools and in our regional offices. Our funding comes from a range of sources including schools, businesses, major donors and grant-making trusts. We know that there are many bright disadvantaged young people outside of our current geographies who have the talent to go on to top universities but aren’t able to fulfil this potential. Our long-term ambition is to grow to national reach.

- To fill in appropriate online forms relating to tuition with pupils (weekly register, etc)
- To liaise with the Senior Attainment Coordinator to ensure the smooth running of the pilot and regular attendance of the students
- To undergo any additional appropriate training throughout the role to enhance understanding of safeguarding students and delivery of additional “study skills” modules
- Participate in occasional focus group discussions with other tutors, to support TAP to understand how well the pilot is going/has gone and what can be done to improve it
Person Specification – skills and attributes
- A minimum of one year of tutoring experience required or qualified teacher status (tutoring references from at least two previous employers or parents of tutored students preferred)
- Evidence of the ability to tutor Maths, English or Biology to A Level standard
- Enthusiasm for and ability to contribute to the successful development of The Access Project’s attainment raising work .
- Confident in working with young people
- A strong written and verbal communicator who is positive and flexible
- Robust and resilient character with excellent time-management skills
- Must have achieved a minimum of Grade B at GCSE in Maths, English and Science
- Understands The Access Project’s Mission and ways of working
- Familiarity with and strong knowledge of exam specifications and relevant exam boards.
