Aspire People are working with a specialist provision in Bedfordshire that supports young women who are unable to attend mainstream school due to complex emotional and social needs. Many of these students have experienced a high level of disruption in their early lives, and as a result, may struggle to build trust and regulate their emotions.

• Resilient, calm, and consistent in managing behaviour
• Skilled at building rapport while maintaining clear and professional boundaries

• A driver, due to the rural nature of the setting (essential)

This role would suit someone with experience in youth work, residential care, behaviour support who is now looking for a fresh challenge.

• Gain valuable experience in a specialist educational setting
