This is a fantastic opportunity if you're looking to move into education while continuing to have a real impact on young people's lives.

Your role

No two days are the same. You'll become a trusted adult for pupils who need consistency, encouragement and someone who genuinely believes in them.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting pupils on a one-to-one basis and in small groups.

• Helping pupils manage their emotions and make positive choices.
• Encouraging engagement with classroom learning and school life.

What we're looking for

• Experience working with children or young people.
• A calm, resilient and positive approach.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
• Confidence managing challenging behaviour positively.
• A genuine passion for helping young people succeed.
• A team player who leads with empathy and consistency.
