With a significant increase in contracted SEND tuition expected from September 2026, we are looking to build a team of dedicated practitioners who are passionate about supporting students with additional needs through highly personalised learning programmes.
A Different Way to Use Your SEND Experience
This role offers the opportunity to move beyond whole-class support and work directly with individual students, helping them build confidence, engage with learning and make meaningful progress. Many of the students we support are unable to access mainstream education and receive Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) provision.

- Trauma‑related difficulties
- Medical needs
- Additional learning needs
The Role
