Redhill, United Kingdom Academics Remote Work Freelance Full time

Are you motivated by supporting and helping vulnerable and at-risk young people?

This is an amazing opportunity to help change the lives of children and young people who are at-risk. This Aspiring Outreach Worker role will give you experience working with vulnerable students, increasing their engagement, attainment and life chances.

You will be providing a vital service within the community, working alongside teachers and specialist staff to support students with special educational needs (SEN), and a range of associated social, emotional and mental health challenges and traumas. Some children / young people will have suffered adverse childhood experiences, and you will identify their risks and needs, escalating where necessary.

A common feature for many children and young people with special educational needs is marginalisation and disadvantage, trauma, dysfunctional family relationships, low educational attainment and stigmatisation. Subsequently they face many barriers in life and are more 'at risk' of negative outcomes. You will be instrumental in providing consistency, and equipping children and young people with tools to ensure they feel safe, secure, empowered, and believe that they can succeed in life.

Ideal for a Psychology, Sociology and Criminology graduates, this role will give you excellent practical experience with vulnerable, hard-to-reach students, before embarking on a career in outreach or for non-profit organisations. Also suitable for aspiring Probation Officers, Prison Officers and Youth Justice Workers.
