Intervention Tutor

About You Are you someone who holds high expectations for yourself and others, and who is deeply committed to making a meaningful difference in students’ lives? Do you believe that every child, regardless of background or learning needs, can achieve strong academic outcomes? This role is suited to an individual who brings enthusiasm, dedication, and a passion for helping students thrive. The Role As an intervention tutor, the work involves both working in the classroom and running intervention sessions for students with SEND, either individually or in small groups. Responsibilities include collaboratively planning student activities with the SENCO and other members of the team, as well as organising the provision of support for identified SEND learners. The role focuses on supporting students in developing both their academic and social skills, ensuring that each learner receives the guidance they need to succeed. Why Join Us This is an important time to join The Oxford Academy, where our values of ‘commitment to others, commitment to learning’ drive everything we do. We are seeking a skilled individual who shares our deep belief that education has the power to transform lives, communities, and society for the better. You will be joining a team where staff are genuinely proud of the work they do, recognising how valuable a high-quality education is for improving pupils' life chances, and remain very positive about working at the school (Ofsted 2026). At The Oxford Academy, support staff are valued as essential professional partners in our school's success. We actively invest in our team through CPLD and formal apprenticeship pathways funded via the River Learning Trust Apprenticeship Levy. Whether you are starting out or looking to broaden your career, our support staff have successfully completed Level 3 to Level 5 qualifications, enabling meaningful internal career progression. Shaping Futures and Long-Term Success Continued Professional Development ‘With the Trust's support and the Apprenticeship Levy, I completed both a Level 5 Operations Management apprenticeship and a Level 5 CIPD qualification. That structured CPLD provided the foundation to move into HR; a shift made possible by RLT’s commitment to internal professional development’ (Manager, The Oxford Academy). Community and Connection ‘I am delighted to have joined TOA. I have felt consistently supported by my line manager, Nora Ward, as well as the Senior Leadership, Central teams and HR colleagues. From day one, it was clear that this is an environment where I can build effective systems, grow professionally, and see the real-world impact of my work. It’s a privilege to be part of a community that truly lives its values; placing students at the heart of everything while ensuring staff feel respected and genuinely valued’ (Manager, The Oxford Academy). ‘The atmosphere at The Oxford Academy is truly like no other, it is a space that is as inspiring as it is motivating. There is an infectious energy here driven by a staff and students that fills me with pride. I’ve reached a point where I feel like a stick of rock, I am TOA through and through’ (Senior Leader, The Oxford Academy). Care and Compassion ‘What I didn't expect, though, was to find an environment where the differing strengths of each and every staff member are valued and that time would be invested in me to be the best I could be. I ventured through a number of roles and, since I retired from teaching, I have continued in a support role that enables me to make a difference. One other thing that should be highlighted is that staff are thought of as people, and not work units. I suffered a bout of serious ill-health and the TOA family supported me in my return to the chalkface, and I will be forever grateful to them’ (Administrator, The Oxford Academy). ‘Being part of creating successful futures for so many students is something that I will always be proud of. My enthusiasm grows for my job every single day’ (Intervention Tutor, The Oxford Academy).
