About the Role:
As a Behaviour Support Assistant, you'll work with children across Key Stages 1-4 who display behaviours that challenge.

You'll work closely with teaching staff and behaviour leads to put supportive strategies in place and help pupils stay on track-both emotionally and academically. This rewarding role is based in a welcoming school, in Stafford.

- Providing targeted 1:1 and small group support
- Helping pupils regulate their emotions and manage behaviours
- Reinforcing positive behaviour strategies and routines
- Working with teachers to adapt learning activities and goals
- Supporting with classroom transitions and break-time routines
What we're looking for:
We want a Behaviour Support Assistant with patience, initiative, and a solution-focused mindset. Experience working with young people in SEMH or similar settings is desirable, and Team Teach or MAPA training would be an advantage.
In Return, You'll Receive:
- A purposeful role where every day matters
- Regular support from a dedicated SEN consultant
- Access to CPD and behaviour training
- Competitive pay and referral bonuses
If you're ready to make a difference where it counts most, apply now to become a Behaviour Support Assistant in a school where care, connection, and consistency are key. Academics are acting as an agency on behalf of other organisations.
