Are you calm, confident and passionate about helping children overcome behavioural barriers? A mainstream primary school in Smethwick is looking for a Behaviour Mentor to support KS2 pupils who need extra guidance to succeed in the classroom.

This is a brilliant opportunity to make a real difference with pupils who may display challenging behaviour linked to trauma, social, emotional, or mental health needs (SEMH). You'll work closely with the pastoral and SEN teams to create consistent, supportive strategies that help children thrive.

Your Role:
- Provide 1:1 and small group behaviour support across KS2
- Use de-escalation and positive behaviour techniques to manage challenging situations
- Build trusted relationships and act as a positive role model
- Work with teachers and leaders to track progress and adapt support

What We're Looking For:
- Experience supporting children with behaviour needs, ideally in KS2
- Experience supporting children with SEN such as ASD and ADHD
- A calm, non-judgemental approach and strong resilience
- Ability to set clear boundaries while offering encouragement and care
- Strong teamwork and a passion for helping children reach their potential

Why Work with Long Term Futures?
- Long-term, stable work with the potential for a permanent role.
- No day-to-day supply - full-time consistency in one school.
- A dedicated consultant to support you throughout your placement.
- Trial days instead of formal interviews to ensure the right fit.
- Access to free CPD training, including Understanding Autism, Behaviour Management, and further professional development/refreshers.

Next Steps - Our 4-Step Process
- Apply - Submit your CV via the application page.
- Initial Call - Our team will discuss your experience and preferences.
- Trial Day - Experience the school before making a decision.
- Start Work - If the school is the right fit, you're ready to begin.

All applicants will need a valid DBS and two references to be considered for a trial day.
