Are you an experienced teacher who wants more time to focus on the individual needs of the young people you work with?
At SEND Inclusion Support, our Nurture Teachers work with pupils who are currently unable to access mainstream education due to SEND, SEMH, EBSA, anxiety or other barriers to attendance and engagement.
We are expanding our Nurture Pathway across the Lowton, Wigan, Ashton-in-Makerfield, Atherton, Leigh, Tyldesley and Hindley areas.
This is an opportunity to use your teaching experience in a different way - delivering bespoke 1:1 education built around the individual pupil.
You will:
- Deliver 1:1 or small-group education
- Plan and deliver engaging, individualised sessions
- Adapt learning around the pupil's needs, interests and starting point
- Build a trusting relationship before expecting academic progress
- Support confidence, engagement and emotional wellbeing
- Help pupils develop the skills they need to move towards their next stage of education
- Work alongside families and other professionals
- Maintain appropriate records and provide feedback on progress
You won't be expected to create everything from scratch.
Our Nurture Teachers have access to our own bespoke Nurture Curriculum - a semi-formal curriculum designed specifically for pupils who may be unable to access mainstream education.
It provides structure and progression while linking into the National Curriculum and formal education pathways where appropriate.
This gives teachers the flexibility to personalise learning while having a clear framework and resources behind them.
Although sessions may take place in the pupil's home or community, our Nurture Teachers are never left to work in isolation.
We hold termly Nurture Teacher Days, bringing our teachers together to share ideas, discuss practice, reflect on their work and support one another.
You'll also have ongoing support from our wider specialist team, access to resources and curriculum guidance, and regular communication around your placements.
We're looking for an experienced teacher who:
- Holds QTS or has substantial relevant teaching experience
- Has experience working with SEND and/or SEMH
- Is confident delivering 1:1 education
- Can adapt teaching to individual needs
- Is calm, patient and consistent
- Understands the barriers that can prevent a pupil from accessing education
- Can work independently while being part of a wider professional team
- £26-£32 per hour
- Flexible hours
- Paid planning and preparation time
- Bespoke Nurture Curriculum
- Termly Nurture Teacher Days
- Ongoing specialist support
- 1:1 and small-group teaching
- A genuinely individualised approach to education
- The opportunity to make a meaningful difference without the pressures of a traditional classroom
