Join up the BC coaching scheme. Gold membership and coaching qualis should give you all you need(maybe)
CTC also run their own scheme.
Time they were all joined up!!!
Although not a coach I have smbla and Cycling Scotland qualis I use here;

To do Go-Ride you need a min Lev 2 BC coach. Where SMBLA comes in is to take the kids out of the “safe” environment that coaches cannot. So there are limits to what coaches can do.
This may frustrate someone of your abilities as I have witnessed recently.
Working with kids you will need the equivalent of our Scottish Disclosure Scotland check system.
Sad fact of life though is that people are reluctant to part with cash once you declare you are now a “pro coach” and want paying. As with turning any “hobby/volunteer” activity into a living.
Worth maybe speaking to someone like Cyclewise to discuss the pros cons and pitfalls.

Using this quali I work with our LEA Active Schools Co-ordinators to deliver cycle skills to mainly 10yr olds.
This quali could be used to “train” all the people joining up on their works C2W schemes. BC have their Bikeability scheme. CTC have something to.
I do all this as a volunteer btw. Work shifts atm but if the work keeps drying up as it is then I will be joining you and asking for payment(which I have been offered)
