I am currently recruiting for a Behaviour LSA to work 1:1 and in small groups with pupils requiring behaviour support at this KS4 PRU in Camden. Experience with SEMH needs is highly desired, as is a proven ability for achieving positive outcomes with vulnerable students.
The school ethos revolves around providing a fresh start and encouraging students to see and achieve their own potential. The ability of the Behaviour LSA to build pupils self-confidence and self-belief by supporting them and encouraging them and never giving up on them is vital. All pupils will have experienced challenges in mainstream schools prior to attending. Upon coming to this specialist provision, students are offered more flexible and creative pathways.
Support at this Camden school ranges from short term programmes supporting reintegration to mainstream, to long-term provision and vocational pathways. The main reason most pupils attend the school is due to their complex social, emotional and mental health needs. Challenging behaviour is a common presentation of these needs. Many students are also referred with EHCPs for Learning and Cognition and/or Social Communication and Interaction needs.
This opportunity is well suited to a Behaviour LSA seeking experience to pursue further education and training in Psychology, Mental Health Support, Youth Work or Pastoral Care.
The Behaviour LSA will have:
* Experience supporting young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health Needs
* Experience working in a school setting and managing challenging behaviour
* Strong understanding of societal inequalities and barriers to learning
* Education and training in pastoral support, behaviour management and attachment
* A genuine passion for supporting marginalised youth, patience and professionalism
The School:
* Supporting students aged 11-16 years of age
* 100 pupils across three separate sites
* Supporting students with SEMH needs
* Education and training from on-site multidisciplinary team
* OFSTED rated Good
* Based in Camden
