Description:

Youth Engagement Officer - Bolton - Temp to Perm - Full time

Have you served for the military, prison service or been an emergency service officer?

Have you considered a job in education?

Are you passionate about trying to improve a students life?

Prospero Teaching is looking for a motivated and resilient person to work as a Teaching Assistant/Youth Worker to support students in an alternative provision in Bolton. If you have had a career in the military, prison service or law enforcement, you will absolutely posses many transferable & necessary skills that are required for this role and you will be an excellent role model to these students.

The school caters for pupils 11-19 who are aiming for successful reintegration back into mainstream education. Students can seem quite disengaged in their studies and need support staying on task and are quite often lacking that positive role model that young people need.

The position is suitable to people who have had a career in the military, emergency services or the prison service. The role will start as a temporary role but will become permanent depending on performance after a probation period.
