Aspiring Psychologist Behaviour Mentor

Overview

Here at Blue Skies Education we are working in partnership with a school that provides education for children and young people (CYP) with SEMH profiles. The CYP do not attend mainstream school as they present behaviours that challenge and need additional support and care in their school life that cannot be facilitated in a mainstream setting.

We are looking for a behaviour mentor who can mentor, support and inspire these children and teenagers. It is a unique opportunity to change the lives of the students you work with and help guide them through challenging phases in their young lives.

• Ideally you will be a graduate of a psychology, criminology or creative arts based degree (art, drama, music) as these areas offer real value to support different learning platforms and angles with the students. This opportunity offers significant experience for a graduate to build their portfolio for future training or further in education in the psychology and psychotherapy fields.
• A valid DBS or be willing to apply for one (£63)
• Proof of right to work
• References
• Degree (as outlined above)
• UK Residency

• Hours:
  
  32-35hrs per week, day shifts over Mon to Fri
• Start Date:
  
  ASAP
• End Date:
  Indefinite, could become permanent
• Location:
  
  North East London
• Pay: £14-£16 per hour (PAYE)

This SEMH Behaviour Mentor role requires a strong knowledge and understanding of safeguarding and child protection, and the successful applicant must satisfy all background safer recruitment checks including an enhanced DBS on the update service.

The job vacancy may be closed earlier than the closing date if we secure a suitable candidate, so please apply ASAP to avoid potential disappointment.

We look forward to receiving your application.
