⭐Want to step in and help young people work toward their dream careers and goals?
We’re seeking a Youth Support Worker to support students aged 11–18 within a secondary school setting. You’ll work with teachers and pastoral staff to help create a calm, inclusive environment where students feel safe, supported, and ready to learn.
You’ll be working alongside school’s Specialist Resource Base (SRB), which provides tailored support for students with additional learning needs. Learners access elements of mainstream education where appropriate, alongside specialised teaching and wellbeing support.
