Make a Difference Where It Matters
At EFWS (Education and Family Wellbeing Service), we do education differently. We work with children and young people who have struggled to engage with mainstream education. For many of our students, wellbeing comes before learning. Before we can expect a young person to learn, we need to help them feel safe, understood, regulated and ready. We're looking for compassionate, patient and curious people who want to work differently and see the young person behind the behaviour.
It’s About More Than Teaching
At EFWS, we take a holistic approach. We look at the whole young person — their education, wellbeing, relationships, environment, strengths, interests and individual needs. We believe that all behaviour is communication. This approach helps us understand what is behind a young person's behaviour and find ways to support them that are meaningful and individual to them, and for this reason your role won't just be about delivering lessons. It will be about building trust, creating positive experiences and helping a young person recognise what they are capable of.
What You'll Do
- You'll work 1:1 or in small groups, providing personalised support based on each young person's needs.
- This could include:
- Supporting wellbeing alongside learning
- Delivering GCSE, Functional Skills or ASDAN where appropriate
- Adapting activities to suit individual needs and interests
- Building confidence, independence and trust
- Understanding behaviour as communication
- Celebrating progress, however big or small
- Working with families and a wider team of professionals
Who We Are Looking For:
We welcome applications from a wide range of education and support professionals, including:
- Teachers and trainee teachers
- Teaching Assistants and SEN specialists
- Tutors and mentors
- Psychologists and psychology graduates
- Other professionals with experience supporting children and young people
QTS is desirable, but it is not essential. We value experience, attitude and the ability to build genuine relationships just as highly as qualifications.
Why join EFWS?
At EFWS, progress isn't just about grades. It could be attending a lesson, trying something new, managing a difficult moment, building a relationship or starting to believe in yourself again. You'll be part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary team where different skills and perspectives are valued. If you believe young people should be understood before they are judged, and you're looking for a role where you can build meaningful relationships and make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
Help us change the narrative for the next generation.
