The Sullivan Centre, is a short term educational provision which supports young people within Hull and out of county areas who are unable to access their present school due to a diverse range of medical and mental health needs. The tutor will be supporting a young person with profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) who has significant cognitive, sensory, and physical needs. Their communication is highly impacted, with severely delayed language skills and restricted physical access to communication methods.

The tutor’s role is to create meaningful learning opportunities that match the young person’s developmental level, using multi‑sensory approaches, gentle interaction, and patient, responsive support. Success in this role relies on being able to recognise small signs of engagement, adapt activities to the young person’s physical positioning, and work collaboratively with the wider team to ensure the young person can participate as fully as possible in their educational programme.
