Connex - Birmingham
Home-Based SEND Tutor (KS2 – Autism & PMLD) – B10 9AP, Birmingham
Start Date: ASAP | Location: Birmingham | Role Type: Long-Term | Hours: Four sessions per week
Connex Education is currently seeking a dedicated and qualified teacher to provide personalised 1:1 tuition to a KS2 student with a diagnosis of Autism and an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). The student is not attending primary school and requires home-based learning support. Assessments indicate the student is currently working at an Early Years/Reception level.
About the Role:
-
You will deliver engaging and structured learning sessions in the student’s home, four times per week.
-
Sessions will focus on developing core literacy and numeracy skills, including reading, writing, phonics, and the four fundamental mathematical operations.
-
Sessions will use a short-burst learning approach with regular breaks to support the student’s concentration and wellbeing.
-
The student communicates primarily using PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System), so experience with PECS is essential.
This is a rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the life of a young learner who requires a calm, patient, and adaptive teaching approach.
What We’re Looking For:
-
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent.
-
Proven experience working with pupils with Autism, PMLD, and complex learning needs.
-
A dynamic and creative teaching style, with the ability to tailor learning to the individual.
-
Confidence in identifying areas for development and adapting resources accordingly.
-
Experience with PECS and an understanding of alternative communication strategies.
-
A driving licence is preferred but not essential.
-
An enhanced DBS on the update service (or willingness to apply for one).
What Connex Offers:
-
Competitive hourly pay, paid weekly via PAYE.
-
Full access to our SEND Toolkit – over 19 online training courses.
