Axcis are looking for a youth worker for a role within a Liverpool based specialist provision. The school caters for KS3/4 students with additional needs and challenging behaviours including autism, ADHD, ODD, learning difficulties and SEMH needs. The pupils can no longer remain in mainstream education and often require 1:1 support or extra assistance during lessons. This is a full‑time, long‑term position with a high potential for a permanent role for the right candidate. The school is smaller than average with around 60 pupils on roll. All students require 1:1 support and the school seeks a candidate with experience supporting people with additional needs or challenging behaviours. The role will start as soon as possible on a long‑term basis. School hours are 8:30 am – 4:00 pm Monday‑Friday with a 30‑minute lunch break. This is a temporary position, unless stated otherwise.
Responsibilities
The role will require the candidate to have strong behaviour management skills as well as being caring, compassionate and resilient.
Qualifications
The candidate must have some experience within childcare, ideally youth work, and ideally have an understanding or experience working with children on the autism spectrum, or those with SEMH difficulties and challenging behaviours.
Salary
Salary / Pay Rate will be dependent on your skills and experience.
