About Nudge Education

For over 10 years, Nudge Education has been driven by a single purpose: ensuring every child can live A Life Worth Living. Across the UK, thousands of young people face significant barriers to accessing and engaging with education, with approximately 168,000 young people in England alone experiencing severe absence. Through our tailored interventions, trauma-informed practices, and our core cornerstones, we empower vulnerable learners to reconnect, rebuild confidence, and thrive outside mainstream settings.

Powered by our dedicated services, Nudge Education, Nudge Minds and Nudge Education Online (NEO), we deliver alternative education and engagement strategies that meet students exactly where they are, reimagining what educational support looks like.

About the Role

We are seeking compassionate, creative, and resilient practitioners to deliver personalised, 1:1 and 2:1 support for children and young people with SEN, SEMH, and complex needs. This is a dynamic, community-based role operating outside standard classrooms, giving you the creative freedom to design safe, engaging, and meaningful learning experiences bespoke to the individual student.

What You’ll Be Doing (A Day in the Life)

• Tailored Interventions: Deliver engaging, personalised 1:1 and/or 2:1 sessions in community settings, homes, or online.
• Relationship Building: Establish trusting, consistent relationships grounded in trauma-informed care, de-escalation, and emotional regulation strategies.
• Progress & Safeguarding: Monitor student engagement, maintain accurate case records, complete risk assessments, and report safeguarding details promptly.
• Collaborative Working: Partner closely with families, carers, regional support teams, and external specialists to align on goals.

Who We’re Looking For

You don't need a traditional teaching background to change a life. We welcome candidates from youth work, mainstream or alternative education (QTS/QTLS or TA/LSA), healthcare, social care, coaching, or uniformed services.

You are someone who:

• Demonstrates deep empathy, emotional intelligence, and natural adaptability.
• Thrives on building trust and rapport with disengaged young people navigating sensory, communication, or emotional barriers.
• Brings a calm, de‑scalating, and non‑judgmental approach when responding to challenging or distressed behaviours.
• Champions a child‑centred practice, placing the young person's safeguarding, dignity, and wellbeing at the core of your work.
• Maintains perspective and resilience, staying patient and grounded when progress is gradual.

Essential Requirements

• Minimum 2 years exp erience supporting children or young people with SEN, SEMH, ASD, ADHD, or complex needs.
• Proven understanding of trauma-informed practice, de-escalation, and safeguarding.
• Full UK driving licence with access to a reliable vehicle (and willingness to obtain business car insurance).
• Ability to commit to a minimum of 3 days per week / flexible commitment during daytime hours to maintain consistency for young people.
• Right to work in the UK.
• Experience with ADHD
• Experience with SEMH
• Understanding of SALT

Is Nudge Right for You?

Making a real difference takes resilience. In this role, you’ll work independently in the community, travel between sessions, and hold space for young people navigating distress and dysregulation. If you are self‑driven, emotionally grounded, and ready to work autonomously with reliable team backing, you’ll find this role immensely rewarding.
