Job Description

SEND 1:1 Learning Support  Mentor ASD / ASC, SEMH

Type: Fixed-term

Details: Part-time (Mon, Tue, Wed 9:30am - 3:30pm)

Location: Weston Super Mare (primary ages)

Start Date: ASAP to July 2026    

Salary: £14.25 to £17.95 per hour

Our client is a new & expanding Alternative Education Provision, serving primary & secondary-aged pupils with EHCPs relating to SEMH based in Weston Super Mare and surrounding areas across the South West. They operate a ‘revolving-door’ offering whereby students stay at the provision for up to 18 weeks, either on a full-time or part-time 'transition' basis before returning to a mainstream education setting or attending a special school. The roles available are based on expansion and demand for places.

We are seeking someone with previous experience of having worked with learners that have SEMH and have experienced trauma who may have other needs relating to ASC / ASD. The ideal person will be able to act as a positive role model and deliver an alternative education curriculum. We seek individuals that are skilled in recognising the emotional and educational needs of the learner and who are able to respond to and create appropriate learning activities & opportunities around the needs of individual learners. Many of the learners have not engaged in education for a significant amount of time so commonly, an individual approach for each child is necessary. 

If you have already had training in positive behaviour management such as Team Teach / PBM / MAPA and/or THRIVE training we would be particularly interested in hearing from you. If you have practical experience of working with children displaying challenging behaviour and are successful in your application for this post, Team Teach training will be offered free of charge and would be a requirement of the post.

It would be great to hear from you if you have…

Experience of working with children who have had to overcome barriers and difficult situations
	
The ability to engage parents in supporting children at home by helping to set boundaries and managing behaviour
	
The desire to go through training and deliver ideas so that ideas can be implemented.
	
Passionate about working with young people in education
	
Have a good understanding of what makes an effective intervention strategy
	
Are committed to safeguarding young people and helping them overcome difficulties
	
Are committed to ensuring students maximise every opportunity to achieve academically and personally
	
Are able to work within a dynamic and challenging environment
	
Have excellent communication and teamwork skills

The role is offered on a fixed-term contract but has the possibility to turn into a permanent role for the right candidate..
