• Create a calm, safe, and engaging learning environment where students can flourish
• Build strong, trusting relationships with learners and their families
• Monitor and report on progress, adjusting support as needed
• Work closely with schools, support staff, and families to ensure holistic learning

• Passionate about supporting children with SEND
• Patient, empathetic, and able to adapt teaching to meet diverse needs
• Experienced in working with SEND children (in education, care, or therapeutic settings)
• Creative and flexible in their teaching style
• Strong communicators who can collaborate with families and professionals
• Ideally qualified with a background in education, SEN support, or related fields (though we provide training too!)
