Behaviour & Inclusion Support – Wakefield
Location: Wakefield| Full Time
Pay based on experience & qualifications
Be the calm in the classroom. The steady hand. The one who makes school feel safe.
We’re on the lookout for kind, committed Behaviour & Inclusion Support staff to join a specialist setting near the centre of Wakefield that goes above and beyond for students who can’t attend mainstream schools. These young people might be facing exclusions, long-term illness, or other barriers to learning—but here, they’re met with compassion, structure, and opportunity.
Your role?
* Support KS3 and KS4 pupils who are new to the school and adjusting to a different kind of education.
* Provide 1:1 support or work in small groups—whatever helps that young person feel seen, heard, and supported.
* Navigate complex needs (like communication differences, autistic traits, and learning challenges) with empathy and clarity.
* Help manage behaviours calmly and confidently, showing students they can trust and rely on you.
This role is ideal if you:
* Stay cool in a crisis and know how to read the room.
* Understand that every behaviour tells a story.
* Want to make a real difference to young people who need a second (or third) chance.
What you’ll need to join us:
* A DBS on the update service (or be happy to get one through us)
* Two professional references from the last three years
* A big heart, strong boundaries, and a commitment to safeguarding
