About the role
We are looking for a patient and understanding Tutor to support a 17-year-old girl with Autism and ADHD. She is non-verbal and communicates using objects of reference and physical cues. She needs someone who can create a calm and structured learning environment, adapt to her sensory needs, and engage her in short, simple activities. She enjoys sensory play, being outdoors, and swimming. The role involves helping her with basic life skills while encouraging her to engage and learn in a positive and supportive way. She can be a lively and bright girl, but her mood can quickly shift to being upset. A significant concern is her lack of awareness of hazards, making her prone to injury. However, she does show some understanding of danger in familiar settings, such as when climbing or running at home.
Our student requires someone who has worked in care/residential settings and has an interest in teaching and education, is Team Teach trained, and can deliver a fun, highly personalised sensory curriculum with frequent movement breaks. Knowledge of early communication strategies is essential.
If you think this is not the right role for you, do still apply as we are always on the lookout for people with different expertise to work with our pupils in various locations.

* Have the ability to motivate and inspire pupils

* Use a person-centred approach in their work

* Make the wellbeing, achievement, and progress of your pupils central to everything that you plan and do

Benefits:
