Considering teaching, psychology, youth work, SEN, social care, or mental health support?
We are recruiting motivated, resilient, and compassionate graduates to work in secondary schools and specialist provisions across Leeds as Behaviour Mentors, Learning Support Mentors, and Cover Supervisors.

* SEMH needs
* Autism and ADHD
* Learning difficulties and additional educational needs
* Behavioural challenges linked to trauma or unmet needs
This is a structured, supportive school environment where consistency, patience, and strong relationships make a real difference. You will work closely with teaching staff and pastoral teams to help pupils remain engaged, regulated, and supported throughout the school day.
Key Responsibilities
* Provide 1:1 and small-group support to pupils who require additional behavioural, emotional, or learning support
* Act as a positive role model, supporting emotional regulation, routines, and engagement
* Support behaviour management strategies in line with school policies

* Support social, emotional, and communication development
* De-escalate challenging situations calmly and confidently
* Work alongside SENCOs, teachers, and pastoral leads to support individual targets
* Monitor progress and behaviour, providing clear feedback to the school team

✅ Applicants confident working with young people who may display challenging behaviour
What We’re Looking For
* A calm, confident, and empathetic approach
* Strong communication skills and emotional intelligence
* Resilience and consistency
* A genuine interest in supporting young people who need stability and structure
* Experience with young people (formal or informal) is beneficial but not essential
* Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)
* Availability Monday–Friday, term time
What You’ll Get
* Excellent daily pay
* Fast-track registration
* Flexible working opportunities
* Access to 1000+ CPD courses to support career development
* FREE wellbeing resources and support hub
* Preparation packs for working in schools
* Dedicated consultant support throughout your placement
* Long-term pathways into teaching and education careers
