Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of vulnerable young people? Do you want to help students overcome barriers to learning and improve their future prospects? If so, this Behaviour Support Assistant role in High Wycombe could be the perfect opportunity for you.

*

Providing consistency and guidance to help students develop self-confidence and resilience.

Personal Qualities:

*

Passionate about helping young people reach their full potential.
*

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
*

Ability to build confidence and motivation in students.
*

Approachable, empathetic, and a strong listener.
*
