A supportive and inclusive secondary school in Edware, North London, are looking for a Psychology graduate keen to gain some experience with young people. This role would involve supporting a student with SEMH (social, emotional and mental health) needs, in a mainstream secondary environment. This role would suit a Psychology graduate with a good understanding of SEMH (social, emotional and mental health) needs, looking to gain practical experience. This role is for a January start, and would involve working 1-1 with a student with SEMH needs.
