Are you an experienced Primary SEN Tutor, qualified teacher or specialist educator passionate about supporting children with additional learning and communication needs?

New Chapter Tuition is recruiting experienced educators to deliver personalised 1:1 tuition to Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 learners who are currently unable to access mainstream education.

Working alongside Local Authorities, schools and families, we provide relationship-led, trauma-informed education that supports communication, confidence, engagement and academic development.

With consistent weekly timetables, additional paid planning time and a positive work-life balance, you'll have the opportunity to focus on individual learners and celebrate progress at every stage.

You'll deliver personalised, face-to-face 1:1 tuition in learners' homes, schools, libraries and appropriate community settings.

Responsibilities

• Delivering engaging, differentiated KS1-KS2 Maths, English, phonics and early learning activities.
• Supporting learners with Autism (ASC), ADHD, Global Developmental Delay (GDD) and Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN).
• Adapting teaching for verbal and non-verbal learners, including those with significant social communication differences.
• Using visual supports, sensory resources, social stories, structured routines and multisensory teaching approaches.
• Developing communication, social interaction, emotional regulation and independence alongside academic learning.
• Monitoring progress against individual learning targets and EHCP outcomes, completing baseline assessments and weekly reports.

We're particularly interested in experienced Primary SEN Tutors, qualified teachers and specialist educators who have:

• Proven experience teaching or tutoring KS1-KS2 children with SEND.
• Strong understanding of Autism, ADHD, GDD and speech, language and communication needs.
• Experience supporting both verbal and non-verbal learners, including those using alternative communication methods.
• Confidence adapting phonics, early literacy, numeracy and sensory-based learning activities.
• Experience using visual timetables, PECS, Makaton, AAC or other communication approaches where appropriate.
• A patient, creative and nurturing approach to education.
• Reliability, strong safeguarding awareness and commitment to consistent weekly support.

QTS or QTLS is desirable but not essential. Relevant primary SEND teaching or tutoring experience is essential.

• £30-£35 per hour, depending on qualifications and experience.
• Additional paid planning, preparation and assessment (PPA) time.
• Consistent, ongoing 1:1 tuition packages with regular weekly timetables.
• Daytime, term-time working and a positive work-life balance.
• Dedicated support from an experienced SEND-focused team.
• Access to specialist training, professional development, and educational tools and platforms.
• The opportunity to make a meaningful difference through personalised primary education.

If you're an experienced Primary SEN Tutor or specialist educator passionate about making learning accessible to children with additional needs, we'd love to hear from you.

New Chapter Tuition is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. All appointments are subject to safer recruitment checks, including an Enhanced DBS, satisfactory professional references and right-to-work verification.
