- Covering relevant areas of Religious Education, including religious beliefs, practices, ethics, and philosophical issues.
- Adapting lessons, resources, and teaching approaches to meet individual needs.
- Breaking complex topics and concepts into manageable and accessible steps.
- Identifying gaps in knowledge and providing targeted support.
- Supporting GCSE revision, exam preparation, and exam technique.
- Developing confidence in written responses, analysis, and evaluation.
- Supporting a learner who may experience anxiety, school avoidance, or disengagement.
- Creating a calm, structured, and positive learning environment.
- Using engaging activities and the learner’s interests to encourage participation.
- Supporting learners who may display challenging behaviour where appropriate.
- Developing independence, resilience, and positive attitudes towards learning.
- Monitoring progress and providing appropriate feedback.
- Building a positive and trusting relationship with the learner.
- Working collaboratively with parents/carers and other professionals involved in the learner’s support.
- Maintaining professional boundaries and confidentiality.
- Following safeguarding procedures and promoting the welfare of the young person.
