Brighter Futures for Children

Behaviour Support Service (BSS) - Reading Inclusion Support in Education (RISE)


Full time, Permanent post



About us

Brighter Futures for Children is a not-for-profit company, owned by, but independent of, Reading Borough Council. Although we are independent, we are very much part of the Reading Family. Our people enjoy all of benefits as other Council employees including membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and continuous service.


We work closely with partners in the local community and key organisations including Reading Borough Council, policy, public health and voluntary groups. We are responsible for the delivery of children’s social care, early help & prevention, education services (including SEND). This also includes fostering and adoption, the Youth Offending Service and traded services with schools.



Our main aim is to protect and enhance the lives of the children of Reading. We help families find long-term solutions to ensure children lead happy, healthy and successful lives.


About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for you to join our RISE team as an Inclusion Officer. You will work with schools and all relevant LA agencies (especially the RISE and CME services) to contribute to the reduction of exclusions, and to increase educational inclusion, within maintained Reading primary schools. You will be a determined advocate for children and young people, with a focus on increasing time in school to improve outcomes in a manner that is safe and supported for all parties.


You will be expected to work as part of a dynamic team in a creative environment where evidence-based interventions, new ideas, creative ways of working and supporting children and young people are actively encouraged. This approach requires flexibility, adaptability and motivation to work independently, as well as a passion for working with children, young people and families. You will be supervised and supported by an experienced SEND Consultant.


For more information about the role, please read the job description and person specification.

Inclusion and Diversity

We want Brighter Futures for Children to be a great place to work and to ensure that our children, young people and families are represented in leadership roles and positions of power. A vital part of this is ensuring we are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking.

We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBT+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our children, young people and families so that equalities and justice remains at the heart of everything we do.
