    Default job background
    Description

    ABOUT MENTOR

    We are a leading provider of supplementary education services. We have three parts to our organisation:

    • Mentor Education which supports children with school entrance and public exams.
    • Varsity Scholars which supports schools, families and charities with Oxbridge admissions.
    • The Afghan College for Girls which provides free tuition to hundreds of girls in Afghanistan.

    Mentor Education is an independent tuition agency providing consistently high-quality tuition, face to face and online, to students of all ages and abilities. We are one of the leading tuition agencies in Britain; recognised by the Good Schools' Guide; the top agency in the UK according to School Run magazine; the number one agency in London according to the Parent Choice website; "the UK's most successful 11-plus tuition agency" – Evening Standard; "an exemplary track record at the best schools in London" – The Independent. We have won Education Investor's "Tuition Provider of the Year" award.

    We have a 40-year long pedigree of success and have helped 80,000 students achieve their goals. Our core business is in school entrance, GCSE, and A-level exam support. We have a suite of services to help including online, school, and home tuition, courses, weekend schools, academic assessments, interview training, and more.

    We also work with some of the most disadvantaged children. We supported the children affected by Grenfell. We gave free tutoring during the pandemic to local school children to assist with their literacy. We founded the Afghan School for Girls which offers free tuition to over a thousand girls in Afghanistan under the noses of the Taliban. We work with leading charities such as the Amos Foundation to ensure disadvantaged children have access to the best universities.

    At the core of our team are our hundreds of Tutors, most of whom are qualified teachers. Mentor Education tutors are enthusiastic, innovative, experienced teachers or retired teachers who can tailor tutoring for each student and deliver excellent, stimulating, and fun lessons across all curriculum areas.

    Our head office is based in Clapham South but we also run education services for families out of Hampstead, Dulwich and we are soon to be opening services in Wimbledon.

    Last year we won Tuition Agency of the Year and are shortlisted again for it. We also published the best selling book "How to Pass the 11 Plus" and our CEO is Vice President of the industry body, The Tutors' Association.

    Our culture is hugely fun and lively. We run an annual company funded ski trip; our annual summer office party is a day at Royal Enclosure at Royal Ascot for a day's racing; we have a weekly bootcamp on the Common with a personal trainer.

    THE ROLE

    We are a leading supplementary education agency and are looking to hire a Head of KS1 and 7 Plus admission. This role involves both directly teaching children and also developing our programmes and pedagogy in this space. This role would be based out of our Clapham office with Saturday morning work as standard in term time from our Wimbledon, Dulwich or Hampstead sites. We are open to part time candidates. This role would report into our Associate Director for Education (Primary) and will be responsible, educationally, for our 7 plus admissions business.

    7 Plus Entrance

    We have a substantial and growing business in the world of 7 plus exam support. Children are typically targeting City of London, KCS Wimbledon, Westminster, Highgate, Habs, Channing, North London Collegiate, Alleyn's, JAGS, Dulwich College and various GDST schools.

    There is a full suite of services which supports this including academic assessments, mock exam, interview preparation and holiday courses. You would become an expert on all things 7 plus and become a subject expert on the different examinations and further develop our services to match the changing market needs. You would offer educational advice to parents. When required you would yourself be able to do lessons and teaching as needed.

    We have around 10 teachers who teach this on Saturday and Sunday mornings in Hampstead and in Dulwich. We have a programme to convert excellent state school teachers into 7 plus exam specialists. You would train up and manage this cohort of weekend teachers.

    About you

    • We are looking above all for someone who loves children.
    • You must have qualified teacher status.
    • You should have some experience of 7 Plus school entrance – this could be achieved through preparing children for school entrance or running competitive school entrance processes at your own school.
    • You must be interested in developing pedagogical programmes.
    • You should be able to work across EYFS and KS1.
    • You should be comfortable with change
    • You should have excellent communication skills and feel confident speaking to a range of teachers and parents
    • You should be able to work well within a team and collaborate in a fast paced team.
    • You should be ambitious. Our growth plans (and funding) include acquisitions of other businesses and international expansion and we want leaders who can grow with us.

    Salary and remuneration

    We offer a base salary of £50,000. We also have a range of company, personal and business unit bonuses which have a target of £5000 a year but which can be as high as £8000 a year.

    We are actively supportive of part time candidates, although all candidates will need to work on Saturday mornings as that is when we see most of our children.

    If you are already in a school leadership role and already on a significantly higher salary than this but are interested in joining our team do please consider contacting us to discuss a move as we could restructure the roles and responsibilities and consider regrading this role.
