Following a successful first year, Heath School's Outreach Programme is entering an exciting next phase of development from September 2026.

• Build positive, trusting relationships to help students overcome barriers to learning and wellbeing

• Collaborate with school staff, families, and external professionals to develop and deliver support plans

• Act as a role model, motivator, and advocate to improve outcomes for vulnerable young people

We are looking for someone who:

• Has experience supporting young people with complex needs

• Understands the challenges facing students in today’s educational environment

• Communicates effectively and works collaboratively with schools and other agencies

• Is resilient, compassionate, and solution-focused

• Can travel to multiple school sites as required

Why Join Us?

• Make a tangible impact in secondary schools and local communities

• Be part of a supportive and values-driven team

• Access to training, development, and professional growth opportunities as part of the H3 Federation
