About Us:

Our passionate SEN Home Tuition team are looking for a SEN specialised superstar with a genuine care for developing pupils & creatively encouraging engagement. You will predominantly support children who are currently not accessing mainstream or specialist school placements, delivering personalised, one-to-one tuition in their homes in Birmingham.

The children you will support have EHCPs and require additional provision due to autism, complex learning needs, or SEMH challenges. This role requires flexibility, creativity, and the ability to adapt teaching approaches to suit each learner.

This role will require Mon-Fri availability, 2 hours per day. This is a minimum & more hours are encouraged for those interested. Various roles are available within the West Midlands area.

* Support pupils to develop academic skills, independence, and emotional regulation.
* Work closely with parents and carers, providing regular feedback on progress.
* Liaise with schools, local authorities, and other professionals to support a joined-up approach.
* Create a calm, supportive, and motivating learning environment within the home setting.

Our superstar applicant will be/have:

* Experience with children with Special Educational Needs, particularly autism, SEN/SEMH, and complex learning needs.
* Experience as a Teacher (QTS and non-QTS welcomed, however must be Teacher level)
* Experience with PECS and/or Makaton is highly desirable but not a necessity.
* A genuine passion for supporting children who require alternative provision.
* Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively with families and professionals.
* A patient, adaptable, and empathetic approach.
* Ability to travel within the local area (driving preferred but not essential).

Some Key Benefits of the Role:
