About the Opportunity

Prospero Teaching is seeking a dedicated SEN Primary Outreach Tutor to deliver bespoke, 1:1 education packages to primary‑aged pupils with Special Educational Needs who are currently not accessing mainstream education.

This role involves planning and delivering personalised lessons that re‑engage pupils in learning, rebuild confidence, and support academic and emotional development.

This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced teacher or SEN specialist who is looking to step away from the classroom and make a meaningful impact through tailored, relationship‑led teaching.

Prospero Teaching will work closely with you to monitor pupil progress and ensure you are fully supported in delivering high‑quality provision.
