SEN Tutor / SEND Learning Support Assistant

This is far from a standard SEN tutoring role. Applicants with practical SEN experience are encouraged to apply, including those at an earlier stage of their SEN career who are keen to learn a distinctive, holistic multidisciplinary approach combining primitive reflex work, visual tracking, communication and real-world learning.

If you’ve also worked in the following roles, we’d also like to hear from you: Special Educational Needs Tutor, SEND Tutor, SEN Teaching Assistant, SEN Learning Support Assistant, Teaching Assistant, Learning Mentor, Academic Tutor, Private Tutor, Classroom Assistant

Funded RBT qualification, specialist training, clinical supervision and course completion and loyalty bonuses are provided.

What’s On Offer:

Funded RBT qualification, specialist training, regular clinical supervision and course completion and loyalty bonuses are provided.

SALARY: £25 to £32 per Hour (depending on qualifications and experience) + Benefits

LOCATION: Wandsworth, South West London

JOB TYPE: Self-Employed Contract

WORKING HOURS: Up to 30 hours per week, year-round; for example, afternoons from 12:00pm to 6:00pm

JOB OVERVIEW

A genuinely unusual development opportunity gives the SEN Tutor / SEND Learning Support Assistant the chance to build specialist expertise through approaches that go beyond conventional tutoring, whether developing their SEN career or bringing broader existing experience.

The SEN Tutor / SEND Learning Support Assistant works alongside behaviour, speech and language, and occupational therapy specialists in a holistic educational programme, rather than a personal care role.

Primitive reflex work is paired with visual tracking to support reading, while table-based learning is generalised into natural settings. The SEN Tutor / SEND Learning Support Assistant can also learn alongside visiting specialists from STAR Academy in South Africa.

DUTIES

Your duties as the SEN Tutor / SEND Learning Support Assistant include:

• Curriculum Delivery and Adaptation: Deliver the established teaching programme, evaluate what works and refine how content is presented to maintain engagement

• 1:1 Teaching and Collaboration: Work closely with the multidisciplinary team to implement structured goals and communicate progress clearly

• Speech and Communication Focus: Apply speech and oral-motor protocols, including TalkTools and Primitive Reflex Integration, to support clear speech and expressive communication

• Integrated Learning: Connect visual tracking, reflex work and educational activities, helping learning generalise from structured tasks into natural environments

• School and Community Support: Travel with the learner in a private taxi to and from his SEN school in Earlsfield, support independence in class and encourage social integration

• Functional Life Skills: Support community activities such as local errands, public transport and grocery shopping to build practical independence

• Data and Progress Tracking: Record programme data accurately using Hi Rasmus and contribute to curriculum reviews

CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS

• Practical SEN experience supporting young people, including paid, voluntary or placement-based experience, particularly with receptive language, communication or processing challenges

• Relevant degree or equivalent practical SEN experience, such as a degree in Special Educational Needs (SEN), Psychology, Education, Speech and Language Therapy or a related discipline

• Applications are welcomed from candidates at different career stages, including those earlier in their SEN career who can demonstrate relevant practical experience and a genuine willingness to learn

• Exceptionally clear and consistent spoken English, with precise articulation and pronunciation to support the learner’s auditory-processing and speech-mirroring needs

• Strong interpersonal and professional communication skills, with excellent punctuality and dependability

• An open-minded, resilient and proactive approach, with enthusiasm for learning new methods, taking feedback constructively and bringing solutions

• Self-employed status in the UK with valid right to work; visa sponsorship is not available

• Valid Enhanced DBS check or willingness to obtain one

BENEFITS

• Full funding and guidance to complete the 40-hour Registered Behaviour Technician (RBT) online qualification

• Comprehensive training in TalkTools, speech protocols, Primitive Reflex Integration and data tracking via Hi Rasmus

• Regular clinical supervision and mentorship from a senior BCBA, including weekly data and curriculum reviews, monthly in-person visits and ongoing Zoom and phone support

• Collaborative working environment where initiative and creative ideas are valued

• Course completion and loyalty bonuses, with details shared at interview
