Job Description
Help transform a young person’s future – without the pressures of classroom life.
Are you an experienced teacher who understands that meaningful learning begins with trust?
Do you have experience supporting autistic young people with a demand-avoidant profile, high anxiety and complex emotional regulation needs?
Would you thrive in a role where you have the time and flexibility to build a genuinely individualised programme around one young person?
At SEND Inclusion Support, we offer qualified teachers the opportunity to step away from the rigid demands of traditional schooling and deliver relationship-led, one-to-one education through our Nurture Pathway.
We are currently seeking a calm, resilient and experienced Nurture Teacher to support a secondary-aged learner in the Billinge area from September 2026.
The young person has complex SEND, including autism with a PDA profile, ADHD, sensory-processing needs and dyslexia. They require a practitioner who can work confidently within a low-arousal, trauma-informed and demand-sensitive approach.
Provision will initially focus on establishing safety, trust and consistency within the home environment. As the relationship develops, sessions may expand into carefully planned community-based learning and practical activities.
This is not a conventional tutoring role. Progress will begin with connection, emotional regulation and engagement before developing into a personalised curriculum incorporating literacy, numeracy, PSHE, preparation for adulthood and the young person’s individual interests.
The successful practitioner will:
* Hold QTS or QTLS
* Have experience supporting autistic young people with complex needs
* Demonstrate a sound understanding of PDA and demand-sensitive practice
* Be confident supporting behaviours of concern using calm, proactive and low-arousal strategies
* Understand the importance of clear boundaries, consistency and careful risk management
* Be able to plan creative, interest-led learning appropriate for a secondary-aged learner
* Be available for up to 10 hours of consistent in-person provision each week
* Be able to travel to the Billinge area
Experience within specialist SEND provision, alternative provision, SEMH services or a highly supported secondary setting would be particularly valuable.
What we offer:
* £26.00–£32.00 per hour
* Paid planning and preparation time
* A consistent one-to-one placement
* Flexibility when agreeing the weekly timetable
* Access to Twinkl teaching resources
* Regular support from our Nurture Pathway team
* Detailed referral and support information before commencement
* A genuine opportunity to make a sustained difference to a young person’s education and future
Safeguarding and suitability checks will be completed before commencement. The successful applicant will be fully briefed on the young person’s needs and the relevant risk-management arrangements before accepting the placement.
