SEND Child/Behaviour Support Assistants-SEMH, Lewisham

Do you have experience working with children with difficult backgrounds? Want to make a positive difference to child's wellbeing and development? A newly established inclusion centre in Lewisham are branching out to create an outreach team to work with current non-attendees. The children they are looking to support are those with social, emotional and mental health issues (SEMH). A lot of these students have a challenging background and are in need of some significant support to help grow their self esteem and confidence. The inclusion centre prides itself on creating a nurturing and stimulating environment. They are looking for someone to be committed and enthusiastic in order to establish positive relationships with students and offer support to regulate their feelings. It is incredibly key to maintain high expectations of students to access their learning and ensure all tasks are completed to a high standard.
