What ASEND Tuition Is

We are looking for inspirational tutors to support children and young people with SEND in Wokingham.

About ASEND

ASEND is a highly specialist SEND business, placing dedicated SEND professionals in schools and services throughout the UK.

In 2019 we were asked to support our first pupil at their home because the school felt they couldn’t meet his needs any further and they stopped attending. That pupil then successfully transitioned into a new school place and we were asked to support another young person. Over the next four years, we have supported children and young people across numerous London Boroughs, Local Authorities, and various schools. Many of them made it into a new school or returned to their school with the support of our bespoke tutoring service.

We see ourselves as a SEND company rather than a recruitment agency, which means that we do more than just staffing for SEN education. Our Directors all have a unique understanding of SEND and between them share a wealth of knowledge and experience unparalleled in the field. Our team all have a passion for helping young people with SEN overcome barriers and progress. Your experience with us and our young people will therefore feel very different to what you may normally expect as a result.

If you are seeking a truly rewarding position and are passionate about enriching the lives of young people, then do not hesitate to apply now and one of our specialist teams will review your application.
