We are looking for enthusiastic, effective and proactive Learning Support Mentors to join our Learning Support & Inclusive Practice team.

• Using assistive technology and learning tools to enhance access
• Working collaboratively with teaching staff and parents/carers to monitor progress and celebrate achievement
• Providing personal care where required and supporting students with medical, physical or sensory needs
What you’ll bring:
• A genuine passion for supporting young people
• Experience working with individuals with SEND, SEMH or medical needs
• A strengths based approach that puts learner voice at the centre
• Excellent communication skills and a patient, positive manner
• Flexibility, adaptability and a willingness to embrace new challenges
• GCSE (or equivalent) English & Maths at grade C/4 or above
Why join us?
