  • Work collaboratively with teachers, parents, and external professionals to support student development.
  • Contribute to creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive school environment.

Requirements of a Behaviour Mentor:

  • Previous experience working with children or young people, particularly those with behavioural, SEMH, or additional learning needs, is desirable.
  • Relevant qualifications in Education, Psychology, Health & Social Care, Youth Work, or a related field are advantageous.
  • Strong understanding of behaviour management strategies and safeguarding practices.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Patient, empathetic, and resilient approach to supporting students.
  • Ability to remain calm and professional in challenging situations.
  • Genuine commitment to helping young people succeed both academically and personally.
  • Enhanced DBS on the Update Service or willingness to apply via GSL Education.

Please be advised that this role requires a strong knowledge and understanding of safeguarding and child protection, and successful applicants must satisfy all background safer recruitment checks, including providing an enhanced DBS certificate registered on the update service or completing a new application.
