Job Description
We have a new opportunity to support a Year 2 learner who needs gentle, low-demand tuition to help them re-engage with learning in a way that feels safe, calm and manageable.
We are looking for a patient, child-led tutor who can deliver Primary Maths and English sessions and who has experience supporting children with communication, sensory and regulation needs.
About the Learner
This young person has an EHCP and requires highly individualised support due to:
* significant communication and interaction needs
* sensory-regulation differences
* high anxiety around demands and transitions
* dysregulation in busy or noisy environments
* difficulties accessing learning in a traditional setting
Tuition will therefore need to be calm, predictable, and fully child-led.
They currently attend another AP provider for mentoring, so we want to be careful not to overwhelm them. For this reason:
Tuition Details
* 1 hour per week to start
* Wednesday or Thursday (flexible)
* Hours will gradually increase once trust and a relationship have been established
* Sessions must take place in a quiet, low-stimulus environment
* Absolutely no noisy or busy settings
This provision is designed to help the learner rebuild confidence, reduce anxiety and gently re-engage with Maths and English at a pace that suits them.
Tutor Requirements
* £25-£30 per hour
* Must have a minimum of 6 months experience working in a UK-based education setting
* Experience with:
o communication and interaction needs
o sensory-processing profiles
o regulating and reducing anxiety
o child-led approaches
o trauma-informed practice (desirable)
* Calm, patient and responsive to the child's emotional needs
* Able to adapt flexibly throughout the session based on regulation
If this sounds like a role you'd be interested in, please apply and I would be happy to share further details and discuss next steps.
