About the Role
This role offers an exciting opportunity to join our land‑based learning team as an Agricultural/Equine and Animal Care Tutor, delivering engaging and practical vocational programmes within our thriving rural school community. You will promote our courses, build strong employer partnerships to secure high‑quality work placements, and support students through both practical and written assessments, regular reviews, and personalised guidance.

• A supportive network of like-minded professionals who share a clear vision and values.

• High-quality, ongoing professional development for you and your team.

• A passionate, committed wider team focused on:

• Achieving the highest academic outcomes for all pupils.

• Driving social change through education.

• Providing exceptional pastoral care and enrichment opportunities.
