This is both a challenging and rewarding role for the right individual.

We require someone who can work well with students with identified social, emotional and/or mental health needs, and who struggle to manage their own behaviour. The Inclusion and Behaviour Support Assistant must be able to maintain a calm and positive classroom environment, support students to reflect on and improve their behaviour, develop strategies with students so they are able to take ownership of their behaviour as well as help them complete work so that they do not fall behind.

- Patience and resilience to enable a supportive and calm environment for young people who are struggling
