Are you committed to empowering children with Special Educational Needs? Do you find fulfilment in delivering tailored, one‑on‑one learning that helps students thrive? If so, Tradewind Recruitment is looking for dedicated 1:1 SEN Tutors for upcoming tuition in the Sturry and surrounding area.

We're seeking experienced and compassionate professionals to deliver personalised intervention sessions for students who are currently without a formal school placement. These students will have Education, Health, and Care Plans (EHCPs) and may need additional support to meet their unique learning and developmental goals.

Our ongoing roles have flexibility - whether you'd like to support multiple learners or work consistently with one student until they transition to a full‑time setting.

Your Role as an 1:1 SEN Tutor

• Provide one-to-one, needs-based tuition sessions teaching English and Maths.
• Support students' academic progress and personal development.
• Adapt teaching strategies to address individual learning challenges.
• Collaborate closely with parents, carers, and external professionals.
• Keep accurate records of student progress and attendance.

What We're Looking For

• Prior experience working with children/young people with SEN.
• Strong understanding of EHCPs and how to deliver targeted interventions.
• Excellent communication skills and a supportive, patient approach.
• A genuine passion for helping students succeed.
• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) is essential.
• You MUST hold an enhanced Child-only DBS on the update service or be willing to get a new one at a cost of £62 which we will pay you back once you have completed 20 days of work for us.
• Driving is beneficial; ability to travel to nearby towns is amazing!

• Ongoing development: Free access to over 2,500 CPD resources via The National College.
