SEND Specialist Tutor Opportunity 1:1, WR6/WR2 Area (Herefordshire/Worcestershire border)

Prospero Teaching is looking for a SEND Specialist Tutor to deliver a bespoke face-to-face tuition package on a 1:1 basis to a highly able Year 9 pupil with ASD and DCD (dyspraxia) who is currently accessing education through an EOTAS package.

The Opportunity
This is an exciting and rewarding opportunity for a skilled and empathetic tutor who can combine subject knowledge across core GCSE subjects (including English, Maths, Sciences, and Humanities) with a nurturing and personalised approach to learning.

The pupil is intellectually curious, with a particular interest in subjects like quantum mechanics, but he requires structured, foundational teaching to close learning gaps and build GCSE-level competence. Your role will involve delivering engaging, motivating lessons that meet him at his level both academically and emotionally.

You will play a vital part in re-engaging this learner with the curriculum, helping him to build confidence and prepare for qualifications, with support from Prosperos consultant team and regular communication with his wider care team.

Contract/Position Details:

Location Within the pupils home in WR6 and WR2 (travel between locations may be required; both are rural, so access to a car is essential)

Position 1:1 SEND Specialist Tutor

Type of work Contract

Start date ASAP

Duration Ongoing, expected 16 hours per week

End date (if applicable) TBC

Contract type Temporary

Full-time/part-time Part time (up to 16 hours per week)

Minimum rate of pay GBP25 per hour (negotiable based on experience and subject coverage)

Hours Flexible and to be agreed with the carer (after 4 pm, Monday - Friday)
Experience, Training and Qualifications:

QTS or equivalent preferred
Proven experience with SEND, particularly ASD and/or DCD (Dyspraxia)
Able to plan and deliver multi-subject, KS3/GCSE content (Maths, English, History, Politics, Science, Computer Science, Geography)
Must be patient, creative and passionate about making learning accessible and enjoyable
Familiarity with closing knowledge gaps for high-ability learners with inconsistent prior attainment
To be eligible for this role, the 1:1 Tutor must:
Hold the right to work in the UK
Hold an enhanced child barred list DBS certificate registered with the online update service, or be willing to process a new application
Provide two professional child-related references
Have a valid UK driving licence and access to a car (essential for this rural delivery)

Quantum Computing Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the quantum computing jobs market in the UK is shifting from hype to harder-edged reality. The wildest forecasts have softened, some early-stage start-ups have pivoted or been acquired, and investors are more selective. At the same time, governments, big tech, defence, finance and pharma still see quantum as strategically important – especially in algorithms, quantum-safe cryptography, optimisation and materials simulation. The result: fewer “blue-sky” roles with no clear roadmap, and more demand for quantum talent that can plug into real programmes, real products and real timelines. Whether you’re a quantum job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building teams across hardware, software, theory or adjacent fields, understanding the key quantum computing hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Quantum Computing Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK quantum computing hiring has shifted from credential‑first screening to capability‑driven evaluation. Employers now value provable contributions across the stack—algorithms & applications, compilation & optimisation, circuit synthesis, control & calibration, hardware characterisation, error mitigation/correction (QEM/QEC), verification/benchmarking, and hybrid HPC/quantum workflows—plus the ability to communicate trade‑offs, costs and feasibility to non‑quantum teams. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for quantum algorithm engineers, quantum software/compilers, experimentalists, quantum control & firmware, cryo/readout engineers, quantum error correction researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, and quantum‑adjacent product managers. Who this is for: Quantum algorithm/applications engineers, compiler/optimisation engineers, control/firmware engineers, experimental physicists & hardware engineers (superconducting, trapped ion, photonic, spin/neutral atom), cryogenics & RF/microwave, QEC researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, quantum‑HPC orchestration engineers, and product/BD roles in the UK quantum ecosystem.

Why Quantum Computing Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Quantum computing has long been considered an elite subfield of physics and computer science. But as quantum technologies advance—from fault-tolerant hardware to quantum algorithms and quantum cryptography—they’re moving closer to real applications in finance, materials simulation, optimisation, cryptography and more. As this transition happens, UK quantum computing careers are becoming increasingly multidisciplinary. Quantum systems are no longer just the domain of physicists and quantum software engineers. If quantum technologies are to be trusted, adopted and regulated, professionals must also incorporate expertise in law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. In practice, quantum computing projects now intersect with data governance, risk, human interaction, explainability and communication. In this article, we’ll explore why quantum computing careers in the UK are shifting to multidisciplinary roles, how these five supporting fields intersect with quantum work, and what job-seekers & employers should do to keep up in this evolving frontier.
