Your SEMH experience will put you in fantastic stead for this role as you step outside the classroom and into an outreach position.

This is an opportunity to work with the most vulnerable young people, supporting their SEMH needs, as you work towards the ultimate goal of transitioning them back into the classroom to learn amongst their peers.

 Your ability to commit to the pressures of the role will be essential in ensuring you give the best support to the young people under your care, as you deliver learning support and developing their social and emotional skills.

Naturally the role involves traveling across multiple locations in London, where at times circumstance might dictate swift changes in your diary. Naturally costs of travelling during the day will be covered by expenses.

The outreach programme is an essential part of this specialist therapeutic education organisation, the experience gained, and skillsets developed within this role will result in a range of opportunities for progression within the SEND sector.
