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 dedicated SEN Tutors like you in Canterbury!

We're seeking experienced and compassionate professionals to deliver personalised intervention sessions for students who are currently without a formal school placement. These students will have Education, Health, and Care Plans (EHCPs) and may need additional support to meet their unique learning and developmental goals.

Our ongoing roles have flexibility—whether you'd like to support multiple learners or work consistently with one student until they transition to a full-time setting. Most tuition assignments cover 10 hours per week, with 12 hours paid to account for planning. Work part-time or full-time-whatever suits your availability.

Your Role as an SEN Tutor

• Provide one-to-one, needs-based tuition sessions.
• Support students' academic progress and personal development.
• Adapt teaching strategies to address individual learning challenges.
• Collaborate closely with parents, carers, and external professionals.
• Keep accurate records of student progress and attendance.

What We're Looking For

• Prior experience working with children/young people with SEN.
• Strong understanding of EHCPs and how to deliver targeted interventions.
• Excellent communication skills and a supportive, patient approach.
• A genuine passion for helping students succeed.
• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) is essential.

• Maximise your earnings: We work hard to secure top rates of pay and provide honest guidance.
• Ongoing development: Free access to over 2,500 CPD resources via The National College.
• Work your way: Choose from local daily supply, tuition roles, long-term contracts, and permanent posts.
