The Role:
- Creating a safe, structured, and nurturing learning environment for the learners and young adults involved.
- Resolving and managing challenging and high-risk behaviour
- Working within a supportive staff grouping where everyone follows the same standards and ethos.
- Managing behaviour across the classroom and maintaining a structure learning environment
Requirements:
- A DBS on the update service (We can advise on this) (Essential)
- Experience working with SEMH/SEN students with challenging behaviour.
- Team Teach Certificate (Within the last 2 years) (Essential - We can provide the opportunity for this training).
Ideal Candidate:
- A varied knowledge of the national curriculum and basic classroom learning strategies.
- The ability to apply sensible and suitable behaviour management strategies when dealing with challenging/high-risk behaviour.
- The ability to build trust-worthy relationships, both with learners/young adults and staff within a team.
