The role of the Specialist Practitioner within the Mansfield & Ashfield area will include both onetoone work with children and young people. You may also have opportunities to contribute to the whole school approach, providing advice, guidance and support to education staff to promote positive mental health across school communities. Interventions delivered will be brief, earlyintervention focused, and designed to meet the emerging emotional and wellbeing needs of pupils. Each participating school signed up to access the MHST service will have a designated Mental Health Lead who can refer directly into the service. You will work closely with these leads as part of supporting the development of a sustainable whole-school approach to mental health. You will collaborate with a wide range of agencies to ensure highquality, joinedup support is provided. Working alongside junior team members, you will help deliver parent sessions, wellbeing groups and individual support. The role also includes participation in duty responsibilities and facilitating school-based dropins. To be considered, you must be a Registered Nurse, hold a DipSW or equivalent social work qualification (CSS, CQSW, degree in social work), or be an Allied Health Professional registered with the HCPC. You must also have experience of delivering therapeutic work to children, young people and families with emotional or mental health difficulties within a CAMHS setting. Experience of working within educational settings in a similar capacity is desirable. A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle for business use is required for this post.
