Leyland, United Kingdom Compass-uk.org Full time

**About The Role**:
The Assistant Education Mental Health Practitioner is an active member of the team working with others to support the delivery of mental health and emotional wellbeing activities and to deliver positive outcomes for children and young people (aged 5-19 years) and their families.

The post holder will support the team in delivering the Whole School Approach interventions.

The Compass Bloom Mental Health Support Team (MHST) will ensure Children and Young People (CYP) access the right early help, in the right setting removing duplication and preventing CYP/families being ‘bounced’ in-between services.

The service supports children, young people and families providing extra capacity for early intervention support within school and college settings. The three core elements that the MHSTS will provide are:

- Evidence based interventions for mild to moderate mental health and emotional wellbeing issues.
- Support designated senior mental health leads in each setting.
- Provide timely advice to school and college staff.

**Flexible working hours will be considered, including term-time only working arrangements.**

**About You**:
To succeed in this post, you will have an appropriate qualification such as BTEC higher diploma or foundation degree or equivalent skills/knowledge and experience.

Your experience will include at least one year of working with children, young people, and their families in delivering mental health and/or emotional wellbeing advice and support services.

A knowledge and good understanding of how children and young people are impacted by mental health and emotional wellbeing issues and how services support children and young people to develop the skills and strategies to reduce the negative effects of such issues as low mood, anxiety, or stress.

You will be a team player, able to use your strengths in establishing positive professional relationships to cooperate and work with others in the team and other organisations. Being highly motivated, flexible, and able to work without direct supervision you will be confident in your practice and also in knowing when to seek advice or support.
