SEMH Teaching Assistant - SEMH School (Secondary)
Tower Hamlets
Full Time
Immediate & September start
Parker Smith Inclusion are working in partnership with an SEMH school in Tower Hamlets, this school supports young boys that cannot access mainstream education due to their level of needs that could include; SEMH, ASC, trauma, disadvantaged backgrounds, and other complex needs.
To be part of this school is to be part of something special, you're focusing on the holistic and trauma informed way of supporting young men that haven't been given the best start in life, you need to be a positive influence and believe in them as they may not of had this before. A massive factor is being reliable, committed and stay true to your word when supporting them.
The students are learning from a secondary based curriculum but the lessons are modified to keep students engaged and to meet their learning needs, they have access to outdoor space, music studio, barbering/salon and boxing sessions that they will do once a week!
The type of experience I am looking for is the following;
- Experience with SEMH and/or SEND needs
- Experience with dysregulated behaviours and de-escalation.
- Knowledge of secondary curriculum
- GCSEs required
- Degrees desired not essential
- Strong English and communication skills
- Youth work / support work within residential setting (desired)
- Strong boundaries
I am always looking to speak with SEMH specialist based in East London for this school, if you like the sound of this school and want to be part of it then get in touch with Elise @ Parker Smith Inclusion. 0203 011 4848
