Remedy Tutors are looking for an experienced and dedicated SEN Tutor to provide a highly personalised education package for an 11-year-old student.

The student has Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Global Developmental Delay (GDD), alongside complex needs relating to communication, social interaction, attention and listening, sensory processing, emotional regulation and independence.

The successful candidate will be responsible for planning and delivering a highly differentiated and individualised curriculum, tailored to the student's developmental level and specific learning needs.

The student is motivated by music, singing, sensory activities, movement and tactile learning, and benefits from predictable routines, repetition and a flexible approach to learning.

As the Tutor, you will be responsible for:

• Planning and delivering engaging, highly personalised lessons.
• Adapting learning to the student's developmental profile, interests and individual needs.
• Supporting the development of attention, listening and engagement.
• Using clear, simple language alongside visual supports and demonstrations.
• Incorporating multi-sensory, practical and motivating activities into sessions.
• Breaking learning into short, manageable chunks and allowing appropriate movement or sensory breaks.
• Using visual timetables, Now & Next boards and timers to support routines and transitions.
• Supporting communication, interaction and emotional regulation throughout sessions.
• Recognising behaviour as a form of communication and adapting your approach accordingly.
• Creating a calm, predictable and low-arousal learning environment.
• Working closely with a dedicated Teaching Assistant to provide a consistent 2:1 support package.
• Monitoring progress and adapting learning in response to the student's engagement and needs.

The successful Tutor will have:

• QTS, PGCE or an equivalent recognised teaching qualification.
• Strong experience supporting children or young people with ASD and/or Global Developmental Delay.
• Experience delivering highly differentiated learning to students working significantly below age-related expectations.
• A strong understanding of communication and sensory needs.
• Experience using visual supports and structured approaches to learning.
• A calm, patient, nurturing and flexible approach.
• The ability to build a strong and trusting relationship with a student who can find change and unfamiliar situations challenging.
• Experience supporting emotional regulation and responding appropriately to behaviours that may include physical behaviours when dysregulated.

Experience with approaches such as Attention Autism, Intensive Interaction, AAC, SCERTS, visual communication strategies or other social communication interventions would be highly desirable.

An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one, will be required.
