A Behaviour Mentor is required to promote positive behaviours with identified pupils in a Rocdale primary school starting ASAP.

They are looking to engage with candidates who are experienced working with behaviours that challenge and can help overcome barriers to learning. School-based experience is not essential and candidates with transferable skills from other sectors; such as Support Work, Residential Support etc. will be considered.

• Be experienced working alongside children or young people with SEN or those who require assistance in promoting positive behaviour; this does not need to be school based, those from a Youth Work, Social Care, Residential Care and Sports Coaching background are welcome to apply
• Have a calm, nurturing approach and able to define clear expectations
• Be confident building positive relationships with pupils from vulnerable backgrounds to help them progress both socially and academically
