Huntingdon, United Kingdom PeoplePlus Full time

As a Neurodiversity and Reading Specialist, you will work collaboratively with our Prison Education team, providing support to learners with neurodiverse and inclusion needs.

Based from HMP Littlehey you will manage a caseload of learners, carry out initial screening activity and develop Individual Learning Support plans. You will promote an effective and inclusive learning environment, providing support to learners both in a classroom or workshop environment and on a one to one basis. This is a fixed term role for 14 months.

**What are we looking for?**

You will need to demonstrate high ethical standards, take personal accountability for everything you do, and always want to be the best. You should have relevant and recent experience in a similar role within a learning environment and hold or be willing to work towards a level 3 Learning Support qualification.

You will be passionate, creative, and empathetic towards our learners, offering knowledge and guidance throughout their academic and vocational studies. You should be able to demonstrate experience of working within a Special Educational Needs field and experience of positively interacting with people in an educational or support setting.

Here are PeoplePlus, we are committed to transforming the lives of people with convictions through our work in prisons.

Our services have been designed to tackle the underlying causes of offending behaviour so people can make positive changes to their lives.

With more than 500 people working to support people with convictions in custody and in the community, we bring passion, experience and innovation to public sector rehabilitation services.

We also work with specialist partner organisations to help people move away from their past and look forward to a brighter future.

All of our services are designed in partnership with the people who we’re trying to help and away from our direct work with people serving their sentences, we’re working hard to change attitudes towards people who can often be tarnished unfairly following criminal convictions. Our Social Recruitment Framework brings together organisations to tackle any pre-conceived ideas about hiring people who have previously been involved in crime.

We also work with employers on the Ban the Box initiative to support fair and equal recruitment processes and have engaged industry to influence our employer-led curriculum delivered to our learners.

We are extremely proud to be a Silver accredited Investors in People organisation. This means that at PeoplePlus, the right principles are in place but more than that, it means our people and leaders are making active efforts to make sure that there’s real consistency and everyone in the organisation can feel the effects.
