EYFS SEND 1:1 Flexible Learning Partner
Some children need a little extra support to help their confidence grow. Others need someone steady, calm, and patient by their side from the moment they walk through the nursery door. That’s where you come in.
We’re working with a welcoming primary school in Lawrence Weston looking for a Flexible Learning Partner to support a nursery‑aged pupil on a 1:1 basis. This school has a high number of pupils with complex SEND needs, so they’re looking for someone who genuinely understands how to build trust, create consistency, and celebrate the little wins that make a big difference.
This isn’t a role where you’ll be left to “just get on with it”. The school values its support staff and works hard to create a team that feels supportive, collaborative, and child‑centred.
What you’ll be doing:
- Providing 1:1 support within the nursery setting
- Supporting children with complex SEND needs
- Helping create a calm, safe, and engaging learning environment
- Building positive relationships with pupils, staff, and families
- Supporting routines, communication, and emotional regulation throughout the day
We’re looking for someone who:
- Has previous SEND experience, ideally within EYFS or nursery settings
- Feels confident supporting pupils with complex needs
- Brings patience, empathy, and a calm approach to the classroom
- Can adapt quickly and work closely with the wider school team
- Is reliable and ready to start ASAP
Due to the school’s location, driving is preferred. That said, the school can also be accessed via train and bus links.
Essential requirements:
- Enhanced child‑only DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply for one
- References covering the past 24 months
- Right to work in the UK
- Overseas police checks required for any overseas stays longer than 3 months within the last 5 years
- Unfortunately, sponsorship is not available for this role
Why work with Protocol Education?
- Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella companies
- FREE access to our CPD Academy
- Ongoing support from a dedicated consultant
- Opportunities to work in supportive SEND settings
- Local roles that fit around you
