SEND Learning Mentor – Wokingham (11 Hours per Week)
Part-Time | Full Academic Year | September Start
Quantum Scholars are currently recruiting for an experienced and compassionate SEND Learning Mentor to provide 1:1 support for three young boys in Wokingham who are accessing Education Otherwise Than at School (EOTAS) from September.
This is a rewarding opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people with additional needs who require personalised support outside of a mainstream educational setting. You will play a key role in helping pupils develop their confidence, independence, and essential life skills, enabling them to achieve positive outcomes both now and in the future.
As a SEND Learning Mentor, you will deliver engaging and meaningful sessions tailored to each pupil’s individual needs. Your focus will be on supporting their social, emotional, and personal development, encouraging independence, and helping them build the skills and confidence needed to thrive both in education and everyday life.
