• Adapt your teaching style to meet the unique needs of each student
• Support learning across a variety of settings, including homes and community venues

• Foster trust and motivation through patient, flexible, and creative approaches
• Contribute to continuous improvement by sharing best practices where appropriate

• Proven experience supporting students with SEN
• Solid knowledge of the primary or secondary curriculum and effective teaching strategies
• Strong adaptability, empathy, and resilience in varied learning environments
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• Understanding of safeguarding, SEND, or trauma-informed practices
