CALLING PSYCHOLOGY AND CRIMINOLOGY GRADUATES - SURREY BASED/CAMBERLEY
Psychology and Criminology Graduates
Are you passionate about restorative approaches? Are you passionate about demonstrating the value of education and training to vulnerable children? Are you local to Camberley?
We are looking for Psychology and Criminology Graduates to take on Learning Support Assistant Roles to support children with social, emotional and mental health needs, and moderate learning difficulties. You will work in a challenging secondary school setting, working alongside the class teacher, with disadvantaged children that have been exposed to adverse childhood experiences. You will identify their risks and needs, escalating where necessary.
Many of the children face various barriers in life and are more ‘at risk’ of negative outcomes. You will be instrumental in building relationships, providing consistency, and equipping children and young people with tools to ensure they feel safe, secure, empowered, and believe that they can succeed in life, reducing the risk of them entering the criminal justice system. Through building strong & robust relationships, you will have the opportunity to have a positive impact and make a real difference to the lives of children.
No previous experience is required. Interviews are now taking place in Camberley.
Based on holistic and therapeutic practice, with a focus on restorative practice, this role will give you essential restorative experience within anti-social and challenging settings - career progression routes include Probation Officer, Youth Offending Teams and Youth Counsellor.
The school operates a fully integrated Therapy Programme to support each student’s Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). Therapists work 1:1 with children to ensure their physical and emotional needs are met. The school has excellent facilities on-site; there is excellent on-site training, support and CPD. Excellent opportunity for any Psychology and Criminology Graduates.
