Crynodeb
We're working closely with a secondary school in Telford that's really on the up. There's a clear sense of momentum, expectations are rising, standards are improving, and there's a shared belief that every student can achieve more.
It's a school that's focusing on what matters most, strong teaching, positive behaviour, and better outcomes for all. Just as importantly, there's a real commitment to making sure students feel supported, understood, and ready to succeed.
This is a mainstream setting, supporting pupils across Key Stages 3 and 4. Alongside academic progress, there's a big focus on helping students build confidence, resilience, and the life skills they'll carry with them beyond school.
Safeguarding is solid, leadership is visible, and pastoral care plays a huge part in daily life. The aim is simple, create a calm, respectful space where students can learn well and aim high.
The role: Behaviour Support Assistant
We're looking for a calm, reliable Behaviour Support Assistant to join the team and support students with social, emotional, and behavioural needs.
You'll be working with young people who can find school life challenging at times, whether that's staying engaged in lessons, managing emotions, or navigating behaviour. In a busy secondary setting, your role is to be that steady, consistent presence.
Someone who can de-escalate situations, build trust over time, and help students reset and re-engage.
This role is all about the small wins. A student staying in class a little longer. Completing a piece of work. Choosing a different response. It might not always be loud progress, but it's meaningful, and it adds up.
