SEN​/SEND Tutor

You’ll work with vulnerable young people, one at a time, on their terms - none of the teaching-at-scale trade-off, less admin, just one person and the part of teaching you care about. We're recruiting experienced SEND tutors in Kent, £28 - £35 per hour , for one-to-one tuition with children and young people who've fallen out of mainstream education, or never been properly served by it.

  Most placements are a few sessions a week (time-limited part-time engagements), with more hours sometimes available. Work not guaranteed; you choose your placements.
• Work from home:
  Planning, prep, and reporting from home; hybrid placements available.
• Tes CPD access:
  Unlimited Tes professional development library, plus our own SEMH-focused courses.
