Construction Tutor - Alternative Provision

Location: Wellingborough, Northamptonshire
Salary: Around £30,000 per annum (Temp to Perm)
Recruitment Partner: Tradewind Recruitment

Are you a passionate Construction Tutor looking to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people? Tradewind Recruitment is working in partnership with a welcoming Alternative Provision in Wellingborough to recruit a dedicated Construction Tutor on a temp-to-perm basis.

This is a fantastic opportunity to support students who may have become disengaged from mainstream education and help them rediscover a love of learning through practical, vocational education. You'll deliver engaging construction-based lessons in a supportive environment where relationship building, encouragement and consistency are just as important as subject knowledge.

Working with small class sizes, you'll have the time and opportunity to get to know each learner, understand their individual needs and adapt your teaching to help them achieve their full potential. Many students have additional needs such as SEMH, autism, ADHD or other barriers to learning, so patience, resilience and a nurturing approach are essential.

The Role

• Deliver practical and theory-based construction lessons to secondary-aged students.
• Create engaging learning experiences that promote confidence, independence and employability skills.
• Support students with their personal development, behaviour and re-engagement in education.
• Differentiate lessons to meet a range of learning needs and abilities.
• Track student progress and celebrate achievements, no matter how small.
• Work collaboratively with teaching assistants, pastoral staff and senior leaders to ensure positive outcomes for every learner.
• Help prepare students for future education, apprenticeships or employment within the construction industry.

The Ideal Candidate

• Experience teaching or tutoring Construction, Multi-Skills, Carpentry, Brickwork or a related vocational subject.
• A recognised teaching qualification is desirable but not essential for candidates with strong industry experience and a passion for education.
• Experience working with young people, particularly those with additional needs or challenging behaviour, is advantageous.
• Excellent communication and behaviour management skills.
• A patient, positive and adaptable approach.
• A commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary of around £30,000 upon permanent appointment.
• Temp-to-perm opportunity with a supportive Alternative Provision.
• Small class sizes allowing you to make a real impact.
• Ongoing support from your dedicated Tradewind Recruitment consultant.
• Access to free CPD through The National College.
• Opportunities for career progression and continued professional development.
• A rewarding role where every day presents the chance to change a young person's future.

If you're ready to use your construction experience to inspire, motivate and re-engage young people who need it most, we'd love to hear from you.
