Job Description:

We are recruiting for a resilient and compassionate Behaviour & Wellbeing Mentor to join a specialist education provision in Weston-super-Mare. This setting supports young people with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs, many of whom have experienced challenges in mainstream education. The school provides a structured, nurturing and therapeutic environment focused on helping students re-engage with learning, regulate their emotions, and achieve positive outcomes. This is a dynamic, outreach-focused role, where you will work both on-site and out in the community. You will play a key part in supporting students through mentoring, intervention work, and practical support to help them succeed both in education and in everyday life.

Job Responsibility:

  • Provide 1:1 and small group mentoring to students with behavioural and emotional needs
  • Build strong, trusting relationships to support engagement, wellbeing and personal development
  • Act as a positive role model, promoting confidence, resilience and independence
  • Support students in accessing education both in and outside of the classroom
  • Support the implementation of individual behaviour and wellbeing plans
  • Use calm and consistent strategies to manage and de-escalate challenging behaviour
  • Deliver targeted interventions to develop emotional regulation, coping strategies and social skills
  • Monitor and report on student progress and wellbeing
  • Deliver outreach support in the local community, alternative provisions or mainstream settings
  • Travel regularly to provide off-site mentoring and intervention sessions
  • Support students with transitions, reintegration, and maintaining placements
  • Accompany students on off-site activities, trips and enrichment opportunities
  • Work closely with families, schools and external agencies to provide holistic support

Requirements:

  • Experience working with young people with SEMH, SEND or challenging behaviour
  • Calm, patient and confident when managing complex or high-pressure situations
  • Can build strong, professional relationships quickly
  • Proactive, adaptable and able to work independently
  • Passionate about supporting young people to achieve positive outcomes
  • A full UK driving licence is essential
What we offer:
  • Make a meaningful difference to the lives of young people
  • Work across both in-school and outreach environments
  • Be part of a supportive and experienced team
  • Gain valuable experience within a specialist SEMH setting
  • Access ongoing training and development opportunities
