SEN Primary Tutor

Due to the rural location of the school and limited access to public transport, a full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle is essential.

We're excited to be growing and are now looking for a dedicated and passionate SEN Primary Tutor to join the team at 3 Dimensions School, part of Options Autism, within Outcomes First Group.

This is your chance to work in a nurturing, forward-thinking school where every child is seen as an individual and supported to achieve their very best.

Working closely with teachers, learning support assistants and a wider multidisciplinary team, you'll ensure every child receives the right balance of support and challenge to thrive.

• Deliver personalised teaching to individuals or small groups, primarily in core subjects
• Plan, adapt and deliver sessions aligned with individual learning plans and EHCPs
• Contribute to vocational and work-related learning where appropriate
• Support pupils to develop functional, social and life skills
• Track and monitor progress, sharing insights and feedback with colleagues
• Create and maintain a learning environment that meets pupils' sensory and emotional needs
• Work collaboratively with Learning Support Assistants and the wider team to ensure consistency and continuity

We're looking for someone creative, flexible and learner-focused, with a genuine passion for supporting children with additional learning needs.

• Experience working with children with SEN, particularly autism
• Ability to adapt teaching approaches to suit a range of learning styles and needs
• Confidence in managing and supporting challenging behaviour in a calm, positive way
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills
• A proactive, resilient and well‑organised approach
