Job Description:
Learning Support Assistant (SEMH)
We are working with a specialist SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) school in Canterbury that supports children who require additional behavioural and emotional support to thrive in education. The school provides a structured, nurturing environment where relationships are at the heart of everything they do.
They are now looking to appoint a dedicated Learning Support Assistant to join their team.
The Role: Learning Support Assistant
As a Learning Support Assistant, you will play a key role in supporting students both inside and outside the classroom. You will work closely with teaching staff to help manage behaviour, build positive relationships, and support pupils in overcoming barriers to learning.
Key Responsibilities:
*Provide 1:1 and small group support to students with SEMH needs
*Assist in managing challenging behaviour in a calm and consistent manner
*Support the delivery of tailored learning activities
*Build strong, trusting relationships with pupils
*Promote a safe and inclusive learning environment
The Ideal Candidate:
*Experience working with children or young people (education, care, youth work, coaching, etc.)
*A strong, resilient personality with a calm approach under pressure
*A genuine passion for supporting young people with additional needs
*Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
*SEN experience is desirable but not essential
Why Work in an SEMH School?
Working in an SEMH setting is incredibly rewarding. You’ll have the opportunity to make a tangible impact on students’ lives, helping them build confidence, regulate emotions, and achieve outcomes they may not have thought possible. Every day is different, and the relationships you build are truly meaningful.
What’s on Offer:
*Supportive and experienced leadership team
*Ongoing training and professional development
*Opportunity for long-term or permanent placement
*A rewarding and impactful role where no two days are the same
If you’re ready for a challenge and want to be part of a team that genuinely changes lives, we’d love to hear from you.
