Work 1:1 face-to-face out in the community, utilizing sports, movement, and practical activities to deliver meaningful support.
Build genuine connections and deliver tailored outreach support that directly empowers young people struggling with anxiety, self-regulation, and fixed mindsets.

What you need:

Solid, hands-on experience supporting children and young people with SEND/SEMH needs (formal teaching qualifications are not required; practical experience and competency are key).
Strong ability to support complex emotional, sensory, and behavioral needs using low-arousal strategies and patient, sports-led or activity-based engagement.
A valid driving licence and access to a car are required to conduct 1:1 sessions out in the community. (Essential)
