Behaviour Support - Aspiring Criminal Justice - Bracknell
Focused on Restorative Processes, Education, and Training for Aspiring Criminal Justice Officers.
Working 1:1 and in small groups with students who have experienced significant trauma, emphasizing restorative practices. These practices underpin all activities within this specialist SEMH School.
The SEMH school seeks someone sincere who understands what it takes to work with society's most vulnerable students. Your primary role as a Mental Health/SEMH Teaching Assistant is to support and encourage the social, emotional, learning, behavioral, and personal development of individual children. Can you demonstrate the value of education to a child? Can you help equip them with skills to become less vulnerable and less susceptible to manipulation?
Your goal is to give pupils skills that foster independence, aiming to prevent their entry into the criminal justice system. This LSA role focuses on positive engagement, deploying restorative practices, and embodying a supportive way of being, while also sharing your professional self with the students. Building strong relationships is essential, as no significant learning will occur without them. The role specializes in working with students who have Social, Emotional, and Mental Health issues and wellness concerns. Each student will have unique objectives both in and out of school; some may live in supported housing after leaving, while others may attend college. Engaging parents, guardians, and the community is also a key aspect of the school's role.
Behavior is only one aspect of this role and often reflects unmet needs. It is crucial to understand the backgrounds and traumas students have experienced and to set clear objectives that make them feel valued within education.
