We are seeking an experienced and motivated professional with a passion for supporting vulnerable young

people. You will bring energy, empathy and creativity to the new role of Positive Relationships

Mentor. You will play a key part in helping our learners to engage positively with school life,

overcome barriers to learning and achieve both academically and socially.

You will work as part of a growing multidisciplinary team that includes Teachers, Therapists and an

Educational Psychologist, all dedicated to improving outcomes for our learners. Through close

collaboration with colleagues, you will build relationships that foster emotional regulation, resilience

and self-belief. You will help learners to reflect on their experiences, make positive choices and build

trust that enable them to succeed in school and beyond.

In this role, you will provide tailored support for learners who are finding it difficult to engage in their

lessons, helping them to re-establish confidence and motivation. You will be accountable for

supporting measurable improvements in learners’ wellbeing, participation and progress. Your

commitment to inclusion, strong communication skills and ability to connect with young people will

make a tangible difference to their educational journeys.

Experience of working with children and young people with autism or social, emotional and mental

health needs would be an advantage.
