Are you committed to empowering children with Special Educational Needs (SEN)? Do you find fulfilment in delivering tailored, one-on-one learning that helps students thrive? If so, Tradewind Recruitment is looking for a dedicated SEN Tutor to support a Year 1 pupil with high ASD needs in the Canterbury area.

This rewarding role involves providing individualised tuition for a young learner who is currently without a school placement. The student has an Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP), and you will play a key role in helping him achieve his learning and developmental goals through consistent, structured support.

Your Role as an SEN Tutor

• Deliver engaging, one-to-one tuition tailored to the pupil's specific needs.
• Support both academic progress and social-emotional development.
• Implement strategies that promote communication, focus, and positive engagement.
• Work collaboratively with parents, carers, and other professionals to ensure continuity of support.
• Keep accurate records of progress, attendance, and session feedback.

What We're Looking For

• Experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or complex SEN needs.
• A strong understanding of EHCPs and targeted interventions.
• A patient, nurturing, and adaptable approach to learning.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) is essential.
• You must hold an enhanced Child-only DBS on the Update Service or be willing to apply for one ( 62, reimbursed after 20 days of work).
• Driving is beneficial - the ability to travel to nearby areas is a plus!
