Job description

About the Role

Connex Education is seeking passionate Maths Tutors to support young people with SEND and SEMH needs who are currently unable to access mainstream education.

This is a highly rewarding role where you’ll have the independence to plan and deliver personalised Maths lessons, manage your own caseload, and use your initiative to help students rebuild confidence and re-engage with learning. Working on a one-to-one basis, you’ll play a vital part in each student’s progress—academically and personally.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan, prepare, and deliver creative and engaging Maths lessons tailored to individual needs.
• Adapt learning approaches to suit students with Autism, ADHD, or SEMH challenges.
• Mentor students who have struggled to engage in education, encouraging resilience and self-worth.
• Support both academic development and personal growth.
• Take ownership of your caseload, managing time, planning, and lesson preparation.
• Communicate regularly with parents, carers, and local authorities to update on progress.
• Keep accurate records of attendance, lesson content, and outcomes.
• Uphold safeguarding and health & safety standards at all times.
• Use initiative to problem-solve and adapt strategies when needed.

What We’re Looking For

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent (experienced tutors, HLTA, or support staff also considered).
• Strong subject knowledge in Maths, with proven experience in teaching or tutoring.
• Experience supporting SEMH students, ideally in tuition, mentoring, or alternative provision.
• Understanding of strategies to support Autism, ADHD, and emotional regulation.
• Patient, resilient, and adaptable, with strong behaviour management skills.
• Experience from related fields such as counselling, prisons, youth offending teams, or support work (advantageous).
• Ability to work independently, managing your caseload and preparing lessons effectively.
• Valid Enhanced DBS (on the update service, or willingness to apply).
• Full UK driving licence and access to a car (preferred).

What We Offer

• A rewarding role where your teaching directly impacts young lives.
• Flexibility to manage your own schedule and caseload.
• Ongoing referrals from the local authority.
• Safeguarding guidance, CPD opportunities, and continuous support from our team.

Start date: Immediate | Ongoing throughout the academic year
