SEND Tutor

The Role

Casual SEND Tutor 

We are looking for someone with excellent communication skills and a passion to engage young people. You will be dynamic, resilient and motivated with a willingness to uphold our high expectations to secure ‘Outstanding Achievement for All’ in a new exciting flexible role. 

We are seeking to employ a number of tutors who will work closely with our most vulnerable challenging students.  

You will assist their learning across all subjects in a creative and nurturing way on a 1:1 basis in a supportive encouraging team. You may also be required to join other support and teaching staff in the supervision of pupils at break and/or lunchtimes as a valued member of the school community. 

Candidates should be passionate and ambitious with a drive and commitment to improve the life chances of our young people. You will have a dynamic, exceptional and creative approach to improving the teaching and learning in a way that benefits all children. You will preferably have experience of working with young people with additional needs including childhood trauma, alongside SEMH and ASC.   

Recent teaching or teacher assistant experience within an educational environment would be beneficial. 

Every day is different, and if you are looking for a new and exciting challenge working within a supportive friendly team, this could be the job for you.  

This is a new flexible and variable role suitable for those with experience working with challenging young people. A full clean driving licence and business car insurance is required due to the requirement for some offsite activities. 

What We have to Offer:  

• A visible and approachable senior leadership team and an enthusiastic and committed team of teachers and support staff. 
• A strong support network both within the school and across Authentic Education.  
• All staff are part of a professional learning community in which evidence-informed CPD is designed to meet individual needs. 
• Strong potential for career progression. 
• A culture that respects work-life balance and an ongoing commitment to wellbeing with a dedicated Wellbeing Champion.  
• An Employee Assistance Programme including in the moment support and counselling sessions with an external provider.  
• Staff benefits include free eye testing for DSE users through Specsavers, free will writing through Dunham McCarthy Solicitors and reduced price corporate gym membership through BH Live.
