Are you a recent university graduate interested in mental health and behaviour? Are you interested in positive reinforcement and helping to inspire young people with challenging behaviour? Are you considering a future in youth work or psychology?

An Alternative Provision in Swindon are looking for a Graduate to join their team in September as a full-time Mental Health/Behaviour assistant. You will be supporting students aged 11 to 18 with mental health needs and behaviour challenges throughout the school day, helping to support them socially, emotionally and academically.

You will help the students develop appropriate social and emotional skills whilst fostering a positive and encouraging learning environment. You will play a crucial role in the students' education, providing them with a positive role model that they can trust and model their behaviour on.
