Are you an empathetic, resilient, and highly skilled pastoral professional driven by the belief that every young person deserves an equitable pathway to success? We are seeking Learning Support Key Workers to join our centralised support network across our regional campuses.
This is a deeply pastoral, relationship-focused role. You will serve as the primary anchor and trusted point of contact for at-risk young people, including those with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), students with SEMH and additional needs. Rather than general daily classroom supervision, your focus will be on driving attendance, running small-group interventions, managing behaviour dynamically, and empowering students to remain engaged in education.
Act as a central, consistent contact point for a cohort of up to 50 vulnerable learners, building high-trust relationships that foster resilience and emotional regulation.
Implement dynamic de-escalation, trauma-informed practices, and targeted small-group sessions to address barriers to learning and anxiety-related non-attendance
Develop individual support plans and chair a selection of annual EHCP reviews, tracking progress against social, emotional, and academic goals.
GCSEs in English and Maths at Grade C/4 or above (or equivalent Level 2 standard). A Level 3+ qualification in education, youth work, or a related field is essential.
Ability to obtain a satisfactory Enhanced DBS disclosure with barred list checks.
Even if you don't meet every single criteria listed, if you are a resilient individual with a genuine passion for supporting students and a willingness to learn, we would still love to hear from you.
