About the Role:
*
Support the delivery of sports, physical activity, and vocational programmes.

Work closely with teaching staff to reinforce learning, manage behaviour, and motivate pupils.

Encourage participation, build confidence, and model positive and professional behaviour.
*
Provide consistent support to help pupils develop emotional regulation, resilience, and social skills.
We're Looking For:

Individuals with a strong background in sport, coaching, youth work, or mentoring.
*
Adaptable professionals who can think on their feet and respond confidently in a changing environment.
*
People who are committed, proactive, and confident in supporting young people with additional needs.

Strong communicators who can set clear boundaries while remaining approachable and supportive.

Experience working in alternative education, youth work, SEMH settings, or with challenging behaviour is highly desirable, although not essential.
What's on Offer:

A supportive team environment and access to ongoing professional development.
