Context and purpose of the role

YouTurn Futures is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, which delivers a number of programmes
to reduce reoffending.

Our  vision  -  To  create  safe  communities  by  working  with  professionals,  communities,  families,
offenders and vulnerable people.

Our mission - To support the integration and engagement in society of marginalised groups.

As  small  charity working  in  close  partnership  with  statutory services  (police,  probation,  schools,
social  services,  mental  health  teams),  this  role  focuses  on  providing  therapeutic  support  to
individuals, both young people and adults, who are either involved in the criminal justice system or
those at risk of entering it due to challenging life circumstances such as family involvement, social
exclusion, exploitation or other vulnerabilities.

The  post  holder  will  apply  their  therapeutic  support  knowledge  and  skills  to  offer  emotional
wellbeing support in a way that is inclusive, approachable and accessible. The role requires working
collaboratively with statutory services to ensure that the emotional wellbeing needs of individuals
and their families are met as part of a holistic, multi-agency approach. This includes helping service
users manage stress, anxiety, and other emotional challenges that may arise from their family or
social circumstances, making them more vulnerable to involvement with the justice system.

This job description outlines the current main responsibilities of the Emotional Wellbeing Coach role,
however, the duties of the role may change and develop over time and the job description may be
amended on consultation with the post holder (s).

The  postholder  will  focus  on  promoting  emotional  resilience,  offering  coping  strategies,  and
signposting individuals to the appropriate services when more specialised mental health or social
care support is needed.

We work in a holistic, person centred and trauma informed way to support the  individuals (and
sometimes their families) to identify and put in place solutions that will help them move forward in
their lives.

Key accountabilities:

•  Providing emotional support - providing empathetic, one-to-one emotional support to

service users, helping them navigate emotional challenges and build resilience.

•  Developing personalised wellbeing plans - Working collaboratively with service users to

develop personalised emotional wellbeing plans, focusing on practical self-care, stress
management techniques, and positive coping strategies tailored to their circumstances.

•  Group facilitation - Leading therapeutic wellbeing workshops and group sessions that

focus on emotional resilience, improving self-care and managing stress, providing a safe
space for service users to explore ways to improve their emotional wellbeing particurlaly
in the context of navigating the criminal justice system.

•  Crisis support - Offering emotional support during times of distress, using listening and
grounding techniques, and referring to appropriate services such as crisis teams when
necessary.

•  Referring & signposting - Guiding service users to additional services, such as mental

health support, substance misuse, housing support, community resources, or social care,
when deeper clinical intervention is needed.

•  Empowering - individuals through promoting independence for those who may struggle
with everyday life activities and supporting them to build life skills. Empower individuals
with knowledge about appropriate services and support them to access these when
required.

•  Collaboration – Working closely with other charity team members and statutory services
to ensure the emotional wellbeing of service users is supported as part of a broader
intervention plan.

•  Monitoring and Feedback - Keeping accurate records of service user interactions,
wellbeing plans, and progress, providing regular feedback to the team on the
effectiveness of the emotional support offered.

•  Advocating – Advocating for the emotional wellbeing of service users and colleagues.

• Job title:Teacher of Chemistry (Maternity)
• Job Type:Full TIme, Maternity cover
• Salary:£38,663 - £65,199 per annum
• Department:Chemistry Department
• Reporting to:Head of Chemistry
• Location:Highgate, North London
• Start:April or September 2026
• Closing Date:26 January 2026 at 8:00 am

An enthusiastic and inspiring Chemistry teacher is required to serve a Maternity Cover at this academically selective, coeducational North London day school. The post is either for two academic terms, starting on 20 April 2026 and ending on 11 December 2026, or for one term, starting on 25 August 2026 and ending on 11 December 2026.

Applicants should be able to teach Chemistry with confidence up to A Level and the ability to assist in elite university applications is a recommendation.

All pupils study Chemistry as a separate subject in Year 8 to Year 11, before following the Edexcel IGCSE course. A General Science course is taught in Year 7, to which all three science departments contribute and which all members of the Science Faculty can be expected to teach. The majority of pupils will take IGCSEs in all three sciences. In the last year of public examinations (2025), 99% of pupils taking IGCSE Chemistry achieved 7-9 grades, and 63% achieved the top grade 9. In the Sixth Form, the OCR A specification is taught and Chemistry is a popular choice for students, with six classes per year group. Standards of achievement in the Sixth Form are also high: around 80% of pupils achieve A* or A grades and a number of pupils receive offers from Oxbridge to read Chemistry or Natural Sciences each year (seven in 2025).

The department is located centrally within the school. There are four Chemistry laboratories (all with dedicated experimental areas), a departmental office and separate prep room. Three experienced technicians work in the Chemistry Department. The department invites guest speakers to the school, runs a rigorous and varied Sixth Form extension programme and organises a number of thriving societies that meet on a regular basis, including a Junior Science Club. Our Sixth Form students enter the annual RSC Olympiad and L6 Chemistry Challenge Competitions, where the majority will gain a medal: gold certificates were awarded to a quarter of our Y12 chemists in last year’s C3L6 paper.

Teachers in the department are passionate about Chemistry and are deeply committed to teaching the whole of the subject to their pupils. Looking beyond the limitations of examination specifications, they prioritise teaching concepts from first principles wherever possible, not just in the Sixth form but in all years, and seek out opportunities to broaden or deepen their own understanding through wider reading and intra-department discussions. They challenge their pupils to be academically independent and to show resilience in their pursuit of a solution to a problem.

Person Specification

Highgate School seeks to appoint teachers who will have, in addition to the professional qualities outlined below, the following proven personal qualities, or the potential to develop them. At interview, candidates will have the opportunity to demonstrate or give an account of these attributes.

• Profound and continuing interest in the academic subject/s to be taught.
• The depth of knowledge and agility of mind to allow flexibility in lessons, adapting delivery as appropriate in the light of pupils’ responses.
• Empathy with pupils across the age and ability spectrum at Highgate and the ability to implement a range of teaching strategies to cater for each individual pupil.
• Capacity to deal sensitively with problems raised by pupils, in line with Highgate’s pastoral policies and sanctions system, working in partnership with Highgate’s designated staff i/c pastoral care.
• Ability to create effective rapport and a sound relationship with pupils, earning their respect and trust but maintaining proper professional boundaries by not deliberately courting popularity or friendship.
• Dynamism and enthusiasm to contribute broadly to the life of a busy co- educational independent day school.
• Willingness to contribute to the extensive range of activities provided for pupils and to support them in their co-curricular pursuits.
