An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Learning Mentor to join an Alternative Provision in Plymouth. The base works with pupils that often have complex needs and as a result don’t currently attend mainstream or special school settings. The desire for all pupils is that they are supported to return to a specialist or mainstream setting. As our Learning Mentor you will support the learning of the pupils. The successful candidate would ideally have experience of working with young people who have additional needs as well as their own resilience to support young people on a daily basis. You will be expected to work outside of the normal classroom environment, including off site work, as a way to encourage students to learn. You will provide care and support enabling young people to thrive, behavioural coping mechanisms that help young people to make good choices and reflect on their actions and you will provide academic support for the group or young person you will be working with.? If you have good communication skills, and a desire to help make a difference to young people’s lives then Axcis would like to hear from you.
