ASEND tuition supports SEND pupils and continues their learning while they cannot access school or or don't have a school place.

We are looking for an SEN Teacher or Tutor to support an autistic pupil in Thurrock to become more independent.


What ASEND Tuition Is
We are looking for inspirational SEN teachers and tutors to support children and young people with SEND in Thurrock.

We support pupils with SEND who are not attending school for a number of reasons including Mental Health issues, or lack of a suitable school place.

We aim to prepare them for a return to mainstream or special school.


We tutor pupils of all ages face-to-face within school times, and in a range of settings including homes, schools, community centres and out in the community.

Our tuition is completely pupil-focused and can target developing early learning, following an academic curriculum, providing emotional support or developing life skills.

We need a wide range of tutors to support our pupils to meet their specific needs and ensure good progress.

We work very hard to match each tutor with pupils who can most benefit from their skills and expertise.


About The Pupil
We are looking for a tutor to support a 14-year-old boy at his home in Purfleet. He is autistic and uses signs and pictures to communicate what he wants.

Aspects of growing up are some of the things that he is on a journey and this would be a part of his tuition.

He is very resilient and he loves outdoor activities, music, sensory play, being around people and the sensation of spinning.

Occasionally, he may become overwhelmed and faces physical challenges, hindering his ability to join lessons.

The tutor will have experience working with students who may present physical challenges when upset, and be able to create a safe, low arousal and nurturing learning environment for him to return to a place where he can re-engage.

The tutor will be able to teach him self-calming skills to help with his anxiety.

Promoting communication and independence is at the core of this position. To ensure his progress and development, we are looking for a tutor skilled in working with pre-verbal autistic pupils. He needs some help understanding his environment and developing self-help skills.

A suitable tutor would be someone who can guide him to be more independent and develop awareness of his surroundings.

Experience with strategies such as using technology to communicate, intensive interaction, Attention Autism, TEACCH, SCERTS, and the use of a sensory passport would best fit his needs.


If you are a dedicated, experienced educator with a passion for working with pupils with SEN and have the relevant skills and expertise, we would love to hear from you.

Join us in making a lasting difference in this extraordinary pupil's life.
