- Provide one-to-one and small-group behavioural support
- Encourage positive behaviour, attendance, and engagement
- Support students in developing emotional regulation strategies
- Assist teachers in creating a safe, supportive learning environment
- Help de-escalate challenging situations calmly and effectively
- Act as a positive role model for students
- Monitor progress and contribute to behaviour support plans
- Work collaboratively with teachers, SENCOs, and pastoral teams
What's on Offer?
- Earn up to £560 per week
- Full-time, Monday to Friday role
- Long-term placement for the full academic year
- Opportunities across a range of Bradford primary, secondary, and specialist schools
- Ongoing training and professional development opportunities

Candidate Profile
Essential

- Strong communication and interpersonal skills
- A resilient, patient, and proactive approach
- Genuine passion for supporting young people
- Commitment to making a positive impact on pupils' lives
Desirable
- Previous experience working with children or young people
- Mentoring, coaching, tutoring, care, youth work, or behavioural support experience
