Overview
South Leeds. Full-Time | September Starts. Competitive daily pay, based on experience and qualifications.
Some young people don't need another person telling them what they've done wrong.
They need someone who'll show up, stay calm, and help them believe that tomorrow can look different from today.
We're looking for a Behaviour & Inclusion Support Worker to join a specialist setting in South Leeds, supporting children and young people who may have experienced exclusion, social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) challenges, or barriers to learning in mainstream education.
If you're the sort of person who can build trust, spot what's really going on beneath the surface, and help young people find their feet again, we'd love to hear from you.
- What you'll be doing
- Supporting pupils across a range of ages and abilities
- Working one-to-one and in small groups to help students engage with learning
- Building positive relationships with young people who may struggle in traditional classroom environments
- Supporting pupils with SEMH, SEND, autism, ADHD, and behavioural needs
- Helping create a safe, structured, and positive learning environment
- Working closely with teachers, pastoral teams, and wider support staff
This role could be a great fit if you...
- Stay calm when others are losing theirs
- Understand that behaviour is communication
- Enjoy building meaningful relationships with young people
- Have experience in education, youth work, support work, coaching, care, mentoring, or similar roles
- Want a job where no two days are ever quite the same
- What you’ll need
- An enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply for one
- Two recent professional references
- A strong understanding of safeguarding and professional boundaries
- A positive, resilient attitude and genuine passion for supporting young people
