How do I join the Schools Programme?

All of our tutors on the School Programme will need a valid, enhanced DBS check. (What's that?)

This is because you will be working with children under the age of 18 during school hours, therefore it is a legal requirement for you to be in possession of a valid, enhanced DBS check that details Children's Barred List Information.

If you don’t have a valid DBS check, we can register an application for you with our partner, Verifile. This costs £44, and we will front this payment for you. You'll then pay it back in £4 instalments every time you complete a lesson. Once registered, Verifile checks usually come back within five working days. Please head to https://www.mytutor.co.uk/tutors/secure/ta-options.html to get started.

If you already have a DBS, please ensure that it meets our criteria and upload a clear picture/ scan of the front side to your profile via the 'Id & payment' section on the 'Edit profile' page. If you have trouble uploading it, please forward it to support@mytutor.co.uk.

Once you're all set you will need to complete our short online training intro. You'll also have access to our tutoring resource to help you deliver some great lessons!
