Learning Facilitator

Tradewind Recruitment are a leading education recruitment agency who are dedicated to supporting our educators every step of the way!
We are looking for engaging and resilient Learning Facilitator's to work across a range of alternative provisions in Wiltshire on a long term basis.
The Role:
As a Learning Facilitator, you will play a vital role in supporting children and young people who are unable to thrive in a mainstream education setting due anxiety, behaviour that challenges, EHCPs or mental health difficulties.
These children and young people require alternative pathways, rather than the standard curriculum. Therefore, a Learning Facilitator who has experience supporting in a similar environment and has a child centred approach would be ideal for this role.
Your resilient nature, good sense of humour and ability to build strong relationships will contribute to creating a positive and inclusive learning environment.
You will focus on building relationships, re-engaging learners back into education to then support them further with their learning and emotional development.
In addition, you will support with interventions and other activities that are focused on building confidence, setting healthy boundaries and routines for the learners.
There is flexibility in these roles, however full-time availability for Learning Facilitators is highly desired as long-term, full-time opportunities are required regularly.
Responsibilities:
* Provide individualised support to disengaged or hard to reach students, helping them manage their emotions and make positive choices.
* Implement behaviour management strategies outlined by the provisions, utilising positive reinforcement techniques and promoting self-regulation skills.
* Build strong relationships with students based on trust, respect and understanding - supporting their academic and emotional development.
* Collaborate closely with teachers and school staff to develop and implement behaviour support plans, providing feedback on the effectiveness of interventions.
* Handle challenging situations and use appropriate de-escalation techniques to manage children in crisis when necessary.
Requirements:
* Proven experience supporting learners with SEMH / ASC in a school or alternative provision.
* Resilience and a good-humoured nature to navigate the demands of supporting students who can't manage in mainstream education.
* Availability for full-time work from Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 3:30 pm.
* Relevant qualifications and certifications are desirable but not essential.
