Behaviour Support Assistant - Full-Time - Cwmbran
Vision for Education Cardiff is currently recruiting a motivated, patient and resilient Behaviour Support Assistant to work within a school setting in Cwmbran. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is passionate about supporting young people with social, emotional and behavioural difficulties (SEBD), helping them develop confidence, build positive relationships and access education.
As a Behaviour Support Assistant, you will provide tailored support to pupils who may require additional guidance with their behaviour, emotional regulation and engagement in learning. This will often involve working on a 1:1 basis, building trusting relationships and providing the consistency and encouragement needed to help pupils make positive progress.
The role will suit someone who is confident managing challenging behaviour, remains calm under pressure and can adapt their approach to suit individual needs. You will need to recognise behavioural triggers, use positive behaviour management strategies and support pupils through difficult situations, helping them regulate their emotions and successfully return to learning.
A sporting background or an interest in sports would be particularly beneficial. Physical activity can be an important way of helping pupils manage their emotions and release energy. Whether that involves a quick kickabout, encouraging participation in a preferred activity or finding alternative ways to re-engage a pupil, being able to think creatively and build rapport will be key.
Ideally, you will have previous experience working with primary or secondary-aged pupils, particularly within a school, PRU, alternative provision or specialist education setting. Experience supporting pupils with SEMH, challenging behaviour or additional learning needs (ALN) would be advantageous.
However, we are also keen to hear from people with transferable skills and experience in areas such as sports coaching, youth work, mentoring or residential support. Above all, we are looking for someone with the right attitude, resilience and genuine desire to make a difference.
A driving licence is preferred for this role, as pupils may occasionally take part in extracurricular activities off-site. An enhanced DBS check is also required.
In return, you will receive:
An excellent rate of pay between £462.80 and £542.80 per week, depending on experience.
Outstanding training and professional development opportunities, including Team Teach, safeguarding and other relevant courses.
Free on-site parking.
Auto-enrolment into the company pension scheme, subject to eligibility.
Holiday pay at 12.07%.
