The role


The Northumberland Emotional Wellbeing and Behaviour Support Service is a peripatetic team working with school staff and multi-disciplinary professionals to assess the needs of learners (predominantly between the ages of 3 and 16 years old) with emotional wellbeing and behaviour needs and subsequently to support the school or setting in the implementation and evaluation of appropriate strategies and approaches.

We place a strong emphasis on building capacity within schools through a process of consultation and training.

  • modelling the use of evidence-based strategies, approaches and intervention programmes in settings and schools across Northumberland.
  • Working directly with designated pupils in settings either individually or in small groups, dependent on the level of complex needs.
  • Liaising as necessary with all staff involved with designated pupils, offering advice and strategies to develop and maintain consistent approaches to enable the successful inclusion of children and young people with emotional wellbeing and behaviour needs in schools and settings.
  • Contributing to the development of Individual Support Plans through the identification of appropriate outcomes and providing strategies and resources related to the delivery of the plan.
  • Being responsible for the planning and delivery of programmes of work to develop social/emotional skills.
  • Maintaining agreed service records.
