This role will give you essential restorative experience within anti-social and challenging settings – the perfect opportunity if you have aspirations within probation, rehabilitation, prison, youth and social justice.

Based on holistic and therapeutic practice, with a focus on restorative practice, this Learning Support Assistant (LSA) role is an amazing opportunity for Criminology and Psychology Graduates. The role will give you experience working with vulnerable students, increasing their engagement, attainment and life chances, aiming to ensure they do not enter the criminal justice system.

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