Why This Role?
This isn’t your average classroom support role. You’ll be working closely with primary-aged pupils (5–11) who need guidance, patience and emotional support to thrive—many with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs, including autism, ADHD, trauma, and anxiety.
You’ll be part of a nurturing team helping children regulate emotions, build resilience, and develop strategies that improve learning and wellbeing.
What You’ll Be Doing
1. Providing one-to-one and small group support for pupils with additional needs
2. Implementing strategies that promote emotional regulation and positive behaviour
3. Supporting the class teacher in creating a safe, inclusive learning environment
4. Observing, understanding and recording pupil progress to inform interventions
5. Using psychological insight to help children feel understood, supported and confident
What We’re Looking For
6. Graduates in Psychology, Neuroscience, Education, or related subjects
7. A passion for child development, mental health and inclusive education
8. Empathy, patience, and strong emotional intelligence
9. Any experience with children, young people or mental health settings is beneficial (training provided)
What You’ll Gain
10. Direct experience supporting children with SEMH and SEN needs — ideal for future Clinical or Educational Psychology applications
11. Training in trauma-informed care, de-escalation and emotional coaching
12. A supportive environment focused on reflection, growth and impact
13. The chance to make a genuine difference in children’s emotional and academic journeys
