Join Study Mind – Make a Difference Through 1:1 SEND Tuition

Who We Are

At Study Mind, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to access education in a way that works for them. We specialise in providing high\-quality, personalised tuition for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), helping them build confidence, develop skills, and progress towards positive educational outcomes.

Who We Need

We are seeking a compassionate, experienced Qualified Teacher (QTS) to support a Year 11 learner in Hull through a highly personalised 1:1 alternative provision package.

This is a unique and rewarding opportunity to work with a young person who has a complex SEND profile, including Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD), Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs, Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN), ADHD, and additional medical needs.

The student has experienced a significant decline in engagement with education and requires a calm, relationship\-led approach that prioritises trust, regulation, communication, and emotional safety before academic demand.

Despite the challenges he faces, he has many strengths and interests. He enjoys drumming, music, imaginative role play, and responds well to familiar routines and trusted adults. He thrives when learning is embedded within meaningful activities and relationships.

The Role

As a 1:1 SEND Tutor, you will:

  • Deliver face\-to\-face tuition in a children's home setting

  • Build a trusting and consistent relationship through patient, low\-demand engagement

  • Deliver Functional English and Maths at a pre\-Key Stage 1 developmental level

  • Use Total Communication approaches, including visuals, symbols, and simple language

  • Adapt sessions around the learner's regulation, communication style, and interests

  • Support emotional regulation through co\-regulation and structured routines

  • Work collaboratively with residential care staff, social care professionals, and education teams

  • Monitor progress and contribute to transition planning for future educational provision

  • Maintain high standards of safeguarding and professional practice
Key Role Details

Location: Hull (HU7\) – Face\-to\-face delivery within a children's home

Hours: Up to 15 hours per week

Schedule: Flexible and arranged around the young person's regulation, routines, and appointments

Start Date: ASAP

Requirement: Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and substantial SEND experience

Why Join Study Mind?

✔ Dedicated Support Team – Work alongside experienced education consultants and local authority professionals

Essential Requirements

  • Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)

  • Experience supporting learners with SEND, particularly SLD, SEMH, and communication needs

  • Strong understanding of trauma\-informed and regulation\-led practice

  • Ability to adapt teaching to developmental rather than chronological age

  • Excellent relationship\-building and communication skills

  • Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to obtain one)

  • Commitment to safeguarding and child\-centred practice
Desirable (but not Essential)
