  • Supporting students who may display challenging behaviour, emotional dysregulation or difficulties engaging with education.

  • Encouraging positive choices, self-confidence, resilience and emotional regulation.

  • Supporting social development, teamwork, communication and independent skills.

  • Delivering or supporting structured activities, including sports and physical activities where appropriate.

  • Working alongside teachers, pastoral teams and other professionals to provide consistent support.

  • Helping create a safe, structured and supportive environment.

  • Potential opportunities for outreach work, supporting young people outside the classroom.
