Blackpool, Lancashire, United Kingdom
Education
Immediate Start
£149 - £165 Daily
Contract/Project
Location: Blackpool, Lancashire

Salary: Up to £31,850 per annum (Depending on experience)

Job Type: Full-time, Temporary to Permanent

Start Date: September 2026

Qualifications Required: None - full training provided. Armed Forces background highly valued.

Support: Dedicated Teaching Assistant (TA) paired with you for every student.

Looking to transition your military skills into a role with true 1:1 impact? Teach both in the classroom and the great outdoors-fully supported by a dedicated TA.

We are recruiting a resilient, structured, and active individual to work as a 1:1 Alternative Provision (AP) Instructor in Blackpool. This unique role is designed specifically for ex-military personnel, veterans, or outdoor instructors who want to mentor vulnerable youth who have been excluded from or struggled in mainstream school environments.

You do not need a teaching qualification to apply. We prioritise leadership, emotional intelligence, discipline, and life experience over formal teaching degrees.

The Role

Unlike a standard classroom role, you will be teaching strictly on a 1:1 basis with an individual secondary-aged student. You are never isolated-you will work alongside an experienced Teaching Assistant (TA) to provide a safe, structured, and engaging learning dynamic.

Your day will actively bridge the gap between structured classroom tutoring and active, outdoor education across Blackpool and the wider Lancashire coastline.

Supported 1:1 Delivery: Deliver practical, tailored lessons to one student at a time, backed up by a dedicated TA who assists with student focus and well-being.

Active Outdoor Learning: Use the local outdoors, beach environments, sports, and practical tasks to build your student's confidence, teamwork, and life skills.

Mentoring & Discipline: Bring your military structure to help your student develop routine, emotional regulation, and a positive mindset.

Calm Under Pressure: De-escalate challenging behaviours effectively using a trauma-informed, firm-but-fair approach.

What We Are Looking For

Armed Forces / Military Background: Perfect for individuals looking to apply their instructional, navigational, or leadership backgrounds to youth mentorship.

Passion for the Outdoors: Someone who wants an active role and believes that nature is one of the best classrooms for disengaged youth.

Team Players: Ability to collaborate seamlessly with your assigned 1:1 Teaching Assistant to create a cohesive support system.

No QTS Required: Unqualified instructors with trades, sports coaching, or military instruction experience are highly encouraged to apply.

What We Offer

Excellent Pay Structure: Up to £31,850 per annum.

Temp-to-Perm Pathway: A secure, long-term career transition with a clear route to a permanent contract.

Full Support Network: You are never left alone with a student; you always have dedicated TA support and full onboarding/safeguarding training.

Dynamic Work Environment: Say goodbye to being stuck behind a desk all day.

How to Apply

If you have the resilience and leadership skills to change a young person's life track in Blackpool, we want to hear from you.
