SEND Tutor

Overview

Prospero teaching is looking for tutors with experience with SEN students or in an SEN setting in the Blackpool Area to provide 1‑to‑1 support to students with SEN requirements. We are looking for an inspirational and engaging tutor to help support those whose needs may not have been within the traditional school setting.

The successful tutor will need to be patient, empathetic and able to create/deliver learning plans on a 1‑to‑1 basis. A therapeutic approach may also be needed to re‑engage students with their learning. The aim is to provide the pupil with structure in their daily routine and to continue their educational development, ultimately helping them return to an educational setting. The tuition is replacing school for these young people and is normally part‑time, taking place during school hours, five days a week.

Prospero will work with you closely to monitor the progression with each pupil by asking you to submit weekly reports.
