Are you a resilient, calm and committed Behaviour Mentor looking for a role where you can make a genuine difference? EmpowerED is recruiting a dedicated Behaviour Mentor to join a specialist SEMH school in Slough, supporting children with significant social, emotional and mental health needs. This is a highly rewarding opportunity for a Behaviour Mentor who is passionate about helping young people overcome barriers to education and achieve positive outcomes. This is not an easy role.

- Build positive, trusting relationships with pupils who have experienced significant barriers to learning.
- Support students both in the classroom and through one-to-one interventions.
