Tutors
The following arrangements are understood and agreed by both
parties:
General Once a tutoring position has been confirmed, you
are entering into a contract between you (the tutor) and the client
(the student, or the student's parent/guardian). Bright Young
Things Tuition LLP (BYT) acts as agent on behalf of the tutor
and the student. BYT is only responsible for finding students and
an appropriate teacher for the specific subject, and is not
responsible for the content of lessons and the teaching
methods.
The terms of contract entered into by you with the client shall
be in the form provided by BYT unless otherwise agreed by BYT. Upon
signature of the form by the client, you will return to form to BYT
duly signed by you.
Private Arrangements
In consideration of BYT providing you with students , you are
not permitted to make private arrangements for tuition with clients
introduced by BYT or with new clients introduced by BYT clients.
Should you breach this obligation, you will be liable to account to
BYT for all sums received by you from the client/new client without
deduction and BYT shall be entitled to obtain an injunction against
you to prevent further breaches. This obligation shall continue
notwithstanding termination of this Agreement.
Any work referred to a tutor by a client of BYT must be billed
through BYT on your behalf. BYT is happy to negotiate on

must process the billing.

unlikely to be able to pay tutors if this record has not been
signed.
