Maintain accurate records of behavioural incidents, interventions, and outcomes, following school protocols.
Encourage a positive school culture by reinforcing respect, responsibility, and kindness among students.

Previous experience in behaviour support, youth work, or a similar role working with children or young people.
Strong understanding of behaviour management techniques and strategies for supporting students with social, emotional, and behavioural needs.
Ability to build rapport with students and staff, showing empathy and patience in challenging situations.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team.
