Skipton North Yorkshire, United Kingdom Nudge Education Full time

We are Nudge Education.
Last year in the UK around 90,000 young people were persistently absent from education. We exist to ensure that children who are chronically disengaged from education are never left behind and can receive life changing support, guidance and mentoring to help them thrive.
We are looking for compassionate and innovative Practitioners who are passionate about inclusion and can create a safe environment to inspire young people to see the value in education again. The key to what we do is focused upon creating a strong connection with our young people. Our network of practitioners come from many different backgrounds, Education, Academia, HealthCare, Uniformed Services, creative industries, sports clubs and many more. This diversity helps us make the perfect match to our students that gives each intervention the best chance of success. You may have an awareness of trauma or complex medical needs similar to those of our students for example. Whether it is a professional or personal link, one thing is certain, the work you do with our young people will change the course of their life.
Your work is unlikely to be within a traditional classroom setting, the world is our classroom and your knowledge of the local environment and community will be key to successful intervention design. We have a strong support network around you with peer support on hand as well as regional hubs you can tap into for resources and advice. You will be working on a flexible contract where various interventions will be offered based upon location and match with a student. In return, you will receive a competitive rate of £16.You will need to be available during daytime hours, Monday-Friday.
Designing interventions that will support the academic engagement of students and working to meet a set of agreed provision targets
Carrying out risk assessments of environments and activities to ensure student safety
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or Teaching Qualification (PTLLS or higher)
Qualification in therapeutic discipline (counselling, mental health first aid, CBT for example)
Training in de-escalation techniques within last 12 months (CPI, Team Teach or similar)
Experience of teaching students with Special Educational Needs, Social, Emotional or Mental Health needs or other capacity (youth work, counselling or similar)
Ability to build relationships with young people who are facing crises
Specialist knowledge of learning disabilities and conditions such as ADHD, PDA, ASD
Driving Licence and access to own vehicle
Whilst relevant qualifications and experience are desirable, having the heart to work with these disengaged children is key.
We comply with strict safeguarding policies and undertake thorough background checks in accordance with Safer Recruitment Practice.
If you feel that you have the skills and experience required to become our Education Expert, please click 'apply' today and upon reviewing your application, if we think you would be a great fit for this role, you will be invited to attend an online group awareness session to find out more.
