* Act as a consistent adult and mentor for pupils, modelling calm and respectful behaviour

* De-escalate challenging situations and support crisis interventions when needed

* Collaborate with teachers, pastoral leads, and external agencies to support holistic student development

* Contribute to personalised behaviour plans and restorative approaches

What We're Looking For - Behaviour Mentor

* Experience working with young people at risk of exclusion or in alternative education

* Strong understanding of ADHD, SEMH, and behaviour management strategies

* Excellent communication and relationship-building skills

* Resilience, patience, and a calm, non-judgemental approach
