Aspiring Psychologist - Mental Health Support Worker

If you're dreaming of becoming a Clinical, Educational, or Child Psychologist, this is your chance to get stuck in, build real experience, and make a genuine difference-every single day.

We're on the lookout for an Aspiring Psychologist - Mental Health Support Worker to join a fantastic specialist school in Reading. The students here have a primary diagnosis of Autism, alongside co-existing needs like mental health challenges, speech and language difficulties, and emotional/behavioural regulation.

In short? They need someone like you. Someone who is passionate and interested in making a difference.

The role:

Supporting students in the classroom-helping them stay engaged, focused, and confident
Providing hands-on, practical support tailored to each student's individual needs
Assisting with interventions (think speech & language programmes, emotional regulation strategies, and structured routines)
Helping students navigate social situations and build communication skills
Being a consistent, encouraging presence in their school day

Why This Role is a Game-Changer for Aspiring Psychologists

This isn't shadowing. This isn't observing. This is real experience.

You'll:

Work closely with students with Autism and complex needs
See psychological theories play out in real life (and learn what actually works!)
Gain invaluable experience for careers in Clinical Psychology, Educational Psychology, Speech & Language Therapy, or Mental Health Services
Build confidence, resilience, and seriously impressive skills

What We're Looking For

Someone curious, proactive, and ready to learn
Patience, empathy, and the ability to connect with young people
A calm, positive attitude-even when things get challenging
Bonus points if you've got experience with Autism or SEN (but not essential!)

The Best Bits

Every day is different-expect small wins, big breakthroughs, and plenty of proud moments
Work alongside a supportive team who genuinely care
Make a real, visible difference in young people's lives
Walk away with experience that actually sets you apart
