Sub-letting room - tenancy agreement

Hi there
Have a room which I have a person interested in (msc student). I am currently renting a large house and my landlord is happy for me to rent out a couple rooms - so I have permission.
Had a look on the forum and at a couple of internet sites anyone any idea of a 'free' decent tenancy agreement I can modify for my prospective tenant. Read a bit about the 'rent-a-room' scheme.
She has offered references and a deposit if I want one - whilst I know she is self funding I am thinking that it will keep us both straight if she gives me a deposit and I give her a tenancy agreement.
Landlord's only concern is that she knows its only for a year at the most so I need to make sure thats in the agreement.
She's also offered to work in garden/house couple hours a week for a slightly reduced rent - can i build that into an agreement?
Many thanks - in Scotland.

A student won't want to pay council tax but you may lose your single person discount...
I wouldn't swap hours for rent. All sorts of problems likely from that.0 -
Thanks Poppysarah- ah sorry should have said - also a student so no council tax - ta for the reminder.
Yeah wondering about the 'reduced rent for hours' maybe not such a good idea?Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
