Randstad Intervention & Tuition Services

Our mission is to support children and young people to achieve positive outcomes by enhancing academic progress and maximising pupil achievement through tailored programs of support which can include tuition, mentoring, specialist SEND and mental health support.

With 32 years of experience in the education sector, we have extensive understanding of how to support children and young people with tailored academic and pastoral interventions delivered both in and out of educational settings.

Working in partnership with 145 local authorities and more than 4,500 schools, we help thousands of pupils across the country achieve their educational goals and aim to ensure every child and young person has the best opportunity to reach their full potential.

We support pupils from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 5, covering GCSE and A Level subjects. Programmes of support are flexible and are tailored to the needs of pupils, this includes providing support; face to face, on a 1-2-1 basis or in a group setting.

Where support is delivered online, pupils work with a Tutor or Educational Specialist in a virtual environment that reflects a classroom setting with access to whiteboards, screen share facility and high quality video content. Cameras of both Tutor and pupils are fully visible to promote engagement and content is auto recorded ensuring online safety for all users.

We work with schools, local authorities and special settings offering programmes of support that consider individual pupil needs, backgrounds and learning aspirations. This includes supporting:

* Pupils who have been excluded from school or are at risk of exclusion
* Improving school attendance or school avoidance
* Children who are missing in education
* Pupils with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) or SEMH (Social Emotional and Mental Health)
* Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children
* Pupils where English is not their first language (ESOL/EAL)
* Children who are looked after or are being cared for by their local authority
* Pupils who have complex medical needs and cannot attend school
* Young offenders or pupils in secure setting

We track pupil attendance, engagement, progress and outcomes using a bespoke and secure online assessment tool. This allows us to identify the starting point for every pupil and helps our Tutors and Education Specialists create tailored programmes of academic intervention. We complete pupils assessments at regular points and at the end of a programme to evidence progress and outcomes.

We share this data with stakeholders in schools, local authorities and special settings. Stakeholders use this data to make decisions about the next step for a pupil, mitigating any potential risks and identifying areas of success. These can include:

* Real-time data on attendance which can identify safeguarding concerns.
* Providing an overview on pupil engagement which can help stakeholders adapt future sessions or start to plan a transition back into a classroom setting if support has been previously delivered outside the classroom.
* Progress against academic objectives, identifying if a pupil is ready to move onto the next academic level.
* Identifying if a pupil is ready to take exams or other formal assessments.
* Data that may suggest learning is being impacted by an undiagnosed need
* Help inform applications for Educational Health Care Plans (EHCP) or where schools complete Personal Education Plan (PEP)

We ensure staff undergo safeguarding training covering responsibilities, reporting, and internal processes. Workers supporting children complete CPD in safeguarding, health and safety, behaviour management, child protection, Prevent Duty, and team teaching. Training completion is tracked in our front-office system, with annual refreshers required.

Randstad offers a variety of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) opportunities to ensure their tutors’ training remains current and aligned with industry standards. Tutors have access to an array of e-learning modules and training programs that contribute to their professional development. Additionally, Randstad provides over 25 free CPD-accredited courses to their education staff. These resources are designed to enhance tutors’ skills and knowledge, ensuring they are well-equipped to support their students effectively.
