If you are passionate about supporting secondary-aged young people who need the most encouragement and guidance, and thrive in a challenging but rewarding environment, this could be the role for you.

Tradewind Recruitment are currently seeking resilient and committed Behaviour Support Assistants to join one of various Pupil Referral Units (PRU) in Medway.

In a PRU environment, every day brings a fresh challenge and a new opportunity to make a lasting impact on a young person's life. A calm, consistent approach and a fresh mindset each morning is essential for success in this role.

The Role

Prior experience as a Behaviour Support Assistant, Teaching Assistant, or working in a pastoral/intervention setting is highly desirable.

Experience in PRU, alternative provision, youth work, or with Young Offenders is strongly preferred.

L2 or L3 Teaching Assistant qualification is desirable but not essential.

You must be able to demonstrate strong behaviour management skills, emotional resilience, and a calm, non-confrontational manner.

Must have the right to work in the UK and be willing to obtain an enhanced DBS (child-only) on the update service.
