Job description

SEN Specialist Tutor (Primary Level)

Prospero Teaching is looking for an experienced SEN Specialist Tutor to support primary-aged children with special educational needs (SEN) on a 1:1 basis. This role involves delivering tailored education sessions to children who may require extra support to access the curriculum and overcome barriers to learning.

As an SEN Specialist Tutor, your role will be to design, plan, and deliver engaging lessons that are adapted to the individual needs of each pupil.

You will be supporting students who may have been out of school for some time, so your role will also involve helping them reintegrate, restore structure to their day, and promote positive attitudes towards learning.
