Additionally, you will contribute to the consultation process for prospective students with Education, Health & Care Plans (EHCPs) and play an active role in their annual reviews to assess progress, support needs, and next steps. Your work will support students across Levels 1, 2, and 3, ensuring a high-quality learning experience that fosters confidence and achievement.

This is a fantastic opportunity to make a meaningful impact in students’ educational journeys while being part of a dedicated and supportive team.

Alongside our priority of excellent student experience, we also focus on our employees. Here are just some of our benefits when working for the East Kent Colleges Group:

  • Competitive salary and holiday entitlement

  • Being part of Community Days and Annual Staff Celebration Day

About You

As an Inclusive Learning Tutor you will
  • have a passion for inclusion and supporting young people to overcome barriers to learning.
  • be highly organised, creative and be able to plan and teach engaging and innovative sessions.
  • have strong demonstrable interpersonal skills to engage reluctant learners.
  • be skilled in assessing and tracking student progress and planning further intervention.
  • ensure all students develop the skills they need to succeed. 
  • be able to teach a range of designated study programs and/or ad hoc sessions from Level 1 up to Level 3.
