Job Description

SEN Tutor - Supply Basis

Rotherham | In-Person | Flexible Hours | Supply Basis

Tradewind Recruitment are currently seeking dedicated and compassionate SEN Tutors to support children and young people across the Rotherham area on a supply basis.

This rewarding role involves working with pupils who are unable to access mainstream education for a variety of reasons. As an SEN Tutor, you will provide personalised educational support outside of the traditional school setting, helping students to re-engage with learning and achieve their individual goals.

Learning sessions may take place in a variety of settings, including:

  • The pupil's home
  • Community venues such as libraries or learning centres
  • Alternative educational provisions
  • Other agreed safe locations suitable for learning

The Role

  • Deliver tailored tuition sessions to pupils with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including those with EHCPs.
  • Adapt teaching strategies to meet individual learning needs and abilities.
  • Build positive relationships with pupils, families, and other professionals involved in the student's education.
  • Monitor progress and provide feedback where required.
  • Create a supportive, engaging, and safe learning environment.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have:

  • Experience working with children or young people with SEN.
  • Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), tutoring experience, or relevant educational experience.
  • A patient, flexible, and nurturing approach.
  • Strong communication and behaviour management skills.
  • The ability to plan and deliver engaging lessons tailored to individual learners.
  • A valid Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one.

What Tradewind Recruitment Offers:

  • Flexible supply work to fit around your availability.
  • Competitive rates of pay.
  • Access to free CPD and professional development opportunities.
  • Ongoing support from a dedicated consultant.
  • The opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of vulnerable young people

Salary

Pay rates are competitive and will vary depending on experience, qualifications, and availability.

Tutors at the lower end of the pay scale are typically those with less experience or more limited availability. Higher rates are available for candidates with extensive SEN experience, relevant qualifications, and greater flexibility to take on a wider range of tuition assignments across Rotherham and the surrounding area.

This role is ideal for teachers, tutors, SEN specialists, or education professionals looking for flexible work while supporting students who benefit from alternative educational provision.
