Careers at Targeted Provision

We were established to support those young people most at risk of falling through the cracks in our education system; disengaged young people. those with SEND, those with complex SEMH needs, and care-experience children.

We take a trauma-informed approach, engaging tutors who utilise a holistic practice to go into the schools, homes, and care homes of our children and young people and support them through building their confidence and a trusting relationship with them.

Make an impact and raising the minimum standard for the UK's vulnerable young people is at the core of what we do. As a company we value child-centredness, transparency, accountability, honesty, and ambition.

Escape's take on Targeted Provision

Targeted Provision’s mission is to “break the cycle of educational disadvantage”. They do this by working with schools, local authorities, and charities to provide a range of support for young people who've fallen through the gaps, including specialist tuition, mentoring, and engagement and re-engagement programmes. It’s a big mission, and one that they're doing an excellent job of - in 2021 they were recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best 100 Small Companies to Work For. If you want to work for a company that is making an impact on the lives of young people, in a supportive and caring environment, look no further than Targeted Provision.

    📣 Mission & Purpose
    TP employees generally want to make a difference to young people's lives and it is clear that everyone is driven by this on a daily basis. Changes and better ways of working are always discussed and introduced to ensure we are able to provide a high quality service.

    🥰 Employee recognition
    The hard work doesn't go unnoticed - weekly celebrations highlight those who have stood out and various team members introduce weekly meetings by sharing successes and celebrating specific individuals who have gone above and beyond.

    👩‍👧‍👧 Team members
    Everyone chips in and helps each other out. Colleagues specifically in the team I work in always offer support and check in regularly. The cross team collaboration is also brilliant, it has resulted in a quick turnaround when placing referrals and utilises individual skillsets and knowledge.

    Overall

    TP is full of hardworking, proactive, supportive and caring employees. I haven't been part of the company for very long, but I have received a great level of support in many different ways! We are valued as employees and nothing goes unnoticed. It is great to always see colleagues being praised and recognised for their efforts.

    📣 Mission & Purpose
    The mission and purpose of Targeted Provision is exactly what I was looking for in a company, as it aligns perfectly with my ethos about how we should support our vulnerable young people. The child-centered approach is evident throughout the company - with all employees working to ensure each child is given the best support to achieve their best outcomes.

    👩‍👧‍👧 Team members
    Everyone counts. We are in constant communication - despite many of us working remotely. There is a wonderful support network where time is taken to share ideas, offer a listening ear, provide guidance and expertise, and take time out for a virtual cuppa together. I feel valued, appreciated and supported by the whole team. They are kind, humorous and all work incredibly hard, going above and beyond to ensure we make a positive difference!

    📖 Opportunities to learn
    Targeted Provision has provided me with some excellent training opportunities. Examples include how to use their tech systems, in-house safeguarding and tutor training. I often participate in their more informal training sessions, such as 'drop-ins', where other tutors and members of staff can share ideas and learn from each other. They have also supported me in my personal development by enrolling me on a 3-day course to support my CPD goal, working towards a long-term career aspiration.

    Overall

    They are a rarity - a company who say they put the best interests of the children they work with at the heart of everything they do - and never deviate from this. Each member of staff is focused on making sure we provide the best support for young people. The team are thoughtful, supportive and passionate about what we do.
