Summary
SEN Graduate Learning Mentor
Want a role where your support makes school feel manageable for pupils with additional needs?
Use steady routines and clear communication to help learners engage and progress.
*** SEN Graduate Learning Mentor
*** Immediate start until July 2026
*** £95 - £110 per day
*** ‘Good’ Primary School, Coleshill
*** SEN support – Autism, ADHD and EBD
Day to day:
Work 1:1 and in small groups with pupils who have Autism, ADHD and EBD. You’ll structure tasks into simple steps, use visual schedules/now–next prompts, and scaffold transitions so lessons feel predictable. Blend in-class support with short withdrawal sessions focused on communication, regulation and core literacy/numeracy. Record crisp notes and agree next actions with the class teacher and SENCO.
About you:
Calm under pressure, clear in your language, and consistent with boundaries. You follow support plans, spot triggers early, and adjust your approach without fuss to keep pupils learning.
Requirements
- Degree – 2:2 or above in any subject.
- Communication – Confident verbal and written skills.
- Enhanced DBS – Held already or willingness to obtain.
- Desire to work in education/with children – Genuine interest in SEN, behaviour and pupil wellbeing.
- Experience working with children – Relevant experience (SEN support, mentoring, tutoring, volunteering) is desirable but not essential.
The School:
This ‘Good’ Coleshill primary serves a mixed local intake and keeps classrooms calm through straightforward, consistent routines. Inclusion is embedded: the SEN team runs regular plan–do–review cycles, provides ready-to-use visuals and sensory tools, and maintains access to regulation spaces for pupils who need a reset. Reading is front and centre (systematic phonics and daily guided reading), while maths follows a small-steps sequence with frequent retrieval and practical models. Teams co-plan and share intervention packs, model answers and quick observation templates—so you’re never starting from scratch. New colleagues receive a structured induction, weekly bite-size CPD and short coaching drop-ins with precise, usable next moves, giving you the conditions to show impact quickly and build a strong portfolio for Educational Psychology or ITT routes.
How to Apply
Email your CV and include availability and DBS status (add two referees if you can). Shortlisted candidates will have a brief phone screen and an in-school observation. Early applications are encouraged, as the school may appoint before the closing date.
Due to the volume of applications, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
