ID and employment verification

I'm a Tutor article! During your interview, we’ll ask you to verify your identity and some employment history. Here’s what you need to know!

Here’s what you need to know! 👇

Why do we need verification?

To keep in line with rules set out by the Department of Education, we need to do some identity and employment checks for all potential tutors. They help keep you, our pupils and our schools safe.

What do I need to do?

  • Have a valid ID ready - if you’re a UK or Irish citizen, you’ll need to show a passport and driving or provisional licence at the start of the interview. And if you’re not a UK or Irish citizen, you’ll need your share code and form of approved photo ID.

  • Let us know any employment gaps - we’ll ask for a brief employment history in the interview videos so that you can flag any gaps to us (like a gap year)

How do I know if my ID check is okay?

You will find out during the check if your documents are valid.
