About the Role
We are seeking a skilled and compassionate SEN Teacher to deliver bespoke 2:1 tutoring provision for two primary‑aged learners with EHCP‑led support needs.

Sessions are delivered during the day and focus on academic support, emotional regulation, communication and engagement, using highly personalised, child‑centred approaches.
The learners present with a combination of Autism Spectrum Condition, speech and language delay, emotional regulation needs and learning delays, particularly in literacy. Both benefit from consistent routines, positive reinforcement, sensory‑aware strategies, movement breaks and interest‑led learning. Strengths include engagement through maths, early number work, music, sensory play, outdoor activity and practical tasks.

- Dedicated consultant support
- Great work-life balance
Responsibilities:
- Create a safe, calm and positive learning environment
- Deliver highly personalised, trauma‑informed and sensory‑aware sessions
- Adapt teaching approaches to meet diverse cognitive, emotional and communication needs
- Support learners to regulate emotions, follow routines and engage positively
- Build strong, trusting relationships with learners and families
- Use play‑based, practical and interest‑led strategies to encourage progress
- Complete tuition reports and maintain clear communication with the wider team
Requirements:
- QTS or equivalent teaching qualification (e.g. PGCE)
- Minimum 2 years’ experience working with children with SEN (ASD experience essential)
- Strong understanding of EHCP‑led outcomes
