⭐ About the Role

Teaching Personnel is seeking a Sports & Behaviour Support Mentor to support both general classroom learning and pupils with Additional Learning Needs (ALN) at one of our partner secondary schools in the Newport area.

This is a rewarding opportunity for someone resilient, patient, and motivated to make a real difference in young people’s lives. You’ll play a key role in supporting pupils who may display challenging behaviour or emotional needs, providing consistency, encouragement, and understanding to help them remain focused, engaged, and confident throughout the school day.
