Start Your Career by Changing Lives

Are you a recent graduate looking for meaningful experience that will prepare you for a future career in education, psychology, counselling, youth justice, or mental health services?

Teaching Personnel is recruiting ambitious and driven SEMH Graduate Teaching Assistants to support young people within specialist SEMH schools and alternative provisions across Bolton.

You will work with students facing a range of Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs, including anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment difficulties, emotional dysregulation, ADHD, low self-esteem, behavioural challenges, and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs).

This is far more than a classroom support role. You'll become a mentor, role model, and positive influence for young people who need it most.

• Supporting students on a 1:1 basis and in small groups throughout the school day.
• Building strong, positive relationships with pupils who may have experienced barriers to education.
• Encouraging engagement, attendance, and participation in learning.
• Assisting teachers with lesson delivery and classroom management.
• Supporting emotional regulation and positive behaviour strategies.
• Delivering mentoring sessions and intervention activities.
• Promoting confidence, resilience, and personal growth.
• Working closely with teaching staff, pastoral teams, and external agencies.

Who We're Looking For

• Graduates in Psychology, Criminology, Sociology, Education, Sports Science, Youth Work, Health & Social Care, or related disciplines.
• Individuals with a genuine passion for supporting vulnerable young people.
• Strong communicators who can build rapport quickly.
• Resilient, proactive, and adaptable professionals.
• Previous experience working with young people is desirable but not essential.

Why Work Through Teaching Personnel?

• Fantastic experience for aspiring Teachers, Educational Psychologists, Counsellors, Social Workers, or Youth Workers.
• Competitive weekly pay.
• Access to industry-leading behaviour management and safeguarding training.
• Ongoing support from a dedicated consultant.
• Opportunities for long-term placements and permanent positions.
