Primary / SEND Teacher – 1:1 Alternative Provision
Peterborough | Face-to-face | 15 hours per week | £45 per hour | Term-time
Silvercrest Education is looking for an experienced and compassionate Primary or SEND Teacher to deliver a 1:1 alternative education provision for a young person in Peterborough.
This is a 15-hour-per-week, face-to-face role for a teacher who understands that successful alternative provision starts with relationships, consistency, and meeting the learner where they are.
The role
You will work directly with one young person, delivering an individualized programme shaped around their educational needs, interests, and wider outcomes.
This is not a traditional classroom role. You will have the flexibility to adapt learning to the individual and focus on meaningful progress across academic learning, engagement, confidence, communication, and independence.
You will be responsible for:
- Planning and delivering engaging 1:1 learning
- Adapting teaching to the learner’s individual needs and starting points
- Supporting progress across appropriate areas of the primary curriculum
- Using a nurturing, SEND-informed, and trauma-aware approach
- Building a positive and consistent relationship with the learner
- Contributing to weekly progress and engagement reporting
- Working collaboratively with Silvercrest Education, the family, and other professionals involved in the provision
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
