Introduction

Do you have the skills to inspire, support, and manage young people as they prepare for adult life? For many young people, the transition to adulthood can be overwhelming. Those facing additional barriers--such as social, emotional, or learning challenges--may struggle with self-regulation, engagement, and confidence. At New Meaning Training (NMT), we provide the structure, encouragement, and practical skills they need to take control of their future.

We're looking for a Tutor who knows how to motivate and inspire young people, with the confidence to manage behaviour effectively. Ideally, you'll have experience tutoring or coaching young people, but we also know there are exceptional candidates out there who haven't tutored before but have the right skills and mindset to excel in this role. If you're passionate about working with young people and looking for a meaningful career change, this could be the perfect opportunity. We can provide the necessary training and support to help you transition into the role.

Many of our learners have complex needs, including autism, ADHD, anxiety, attachment disorders, and social-emotional challenges, so patience, empathy, and adaptability are essential. At NMT, no two days are the same. You'll lead engaging learning sessions, build meaningful relationships, and help young people develop essential life skills to prepare for work, training, and independent living. Managing behaviour positively is a key part of this role, and you'll be part of a dynamic, inclusive team that's committed to making a real difference.

We are seeking a compassionate, motivated professional who is committed to confidentiality and passionate about sharing knowledge. This role requires someone who can build a strong rapport with young people from diverse backgrounds, inspiring and motivating them to reach their full potential.

About us

New Meaning Training (NMT) offers education with a difference. We are an alternative education provider dedicated to helping young people aged 15-25 discover their strengths and develop the confidence and skills to earn their own living.

For the 2025-2026 academic year, around 300 young people from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Warwickshire, West Midlands, and Berkshire will join one of our programmes. Many of these students are referred by secondary schools, pupil referral units, and Special Education Needs settings.

Our journey began in 2015 with the opening of our first centre in High Wycombe, originally known as "Toolshed." Ten years on, NMT continues to grow, with new centres planned for Nuneaton and Milton Keynes in September 2025.

Our NMT Warwickshire centres offer five learning programmes: Construction Multiskills, Motor Mechanics, Creative Art & Design, Sports and Computing. They incorporate functional skills qualifications in Maths and English, along with tutorials to support our well-rounded approach. We also provide a 'Transition Support' programme for young people with EHCPs who are not yet ready for a learning setting.

NMT tailors its programmes to meet the needs of its learners, considering Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. We comprehensively apply the principles of a Loving Care Approach (Trauma Informed Practice) to ensure all young people receive the support they need to thrive.
