School Context:
This large primary school in South Manchester is seeking a Behaviour Mentor to support students across Key Stages 1 and 2 who are at risk of exclusion or disengagement. The school prioritises inclusion and runs several intervention programmes aimed at supporting students' social, emotional and behavioural development.
Position Overview:
The Behaviour Mentor will work closely with the pastoral and SEND teams to reduce disruption and improve pupil conduct. The role involves in-class support, small group work and mentoring sessions outside the classroom, often with vulnerable or high-need students.
Key Responsibilities:
* Provide targeted mentoring for students with behavioural and emotional needs
* Lead small intervention groups and structured restorative sessions
* Supervise pupils in the school's internal isolation or reflection unit when required
* Liaise with parents/carers and pastoral leaders to ensure a joined-up approach
* Track and report on pupil engagement and progress
Who We're Looking For:
* Experience working with children or young people in education, care, youth services or mental health settings
* Confidence in de-escalation, setting clear boundaries, and promoting positive behaviour
* Understanding of behaviour management techniques and safeguarding procedures
* Committed to supporting long-term student progress, not just short-term compliance
* Resilient, patient and able to remain calm under pressure
