About the Role:

We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Mental Health Support Assistant to join our team at a vibrant primary school in Salford. As a key member of our support staff, you will play a vital role in helping children (ages 4-11) navigate the complexities of school life and develop the skills they need to succeed.

Your Key Responsibilities:
  • Provide emotional and academic guidance to students, helping them build confidence, self-esteem, and coping strategies.
  • Use positive techniques to manage challenging behaviour, creating a calm and respectful learning environment.
  • Be a positive role model, inspiring students with your own behaviour, communication, and social skills.
  • Work with teachers and therapists to adapt learning plans that suit each student's unique needs.
  • Lead activities that develop social skills, resilience, and emotional regulation, helping students form positive relationships and a strong self-image.
  • Build trust with students and foster a safe and supportive environment where they feel valued and heard.
  • Collaborate with teachers, social workers, and therapists to provide holistic, tailored support for each student's growth.
  • Bring energy and creativity to the classroom with engaging activities that help students reconnect with the joy of learning.
What We're Looking For:
  • A passion for making a meaningful difference in the lives of young people and supporting their emotional and educational growth.
  • Strong communication, empathy, patience, and resilience. You're confident handling challenging behaviour and understand the importance of positive reinforcement.
  • Experience working with SEMH students is a plus, but we welcome anyone with a heart for helping vulnerable young people.
  • A commitment to being a constant, reliable presence in your students' lives.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We undertake safeguarding checks on all workers in accordance with DfE statutory guidance 'Keeping Children Safe in Education'. This may also include an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted applicants. We offer all our registered candidates FREE child protection and prevent duty training.
