Do you have experience in behaviour management and intervention strategies?

Aspire People is looking for dedicated Behaviour and Intervention Specialist Learning Support Assistants to join the fantastic team at our partner Secondary School in Northampton.

As part of the SEMH and SEN Unit, you will work with a diverse group of students, providing tailored support to help them overcome barriers to learning and succeed in both academic and personal growth.

Key Responsibilities:
* Behaviour Support: Work closely with students to manage challenging behaviours, implementing individualised behaviour plans.
* Intervention Delivery: Lead and support targeted interventions to improve social and emotional skills.
* 1:1 and Group Support: Provide support for students both in small groups and on a one-to-one basis, helping them engage with the curriculum.
* Collaboration: Work closely with the SENCO, teachers, and external agencies to monitor and support students' progress.
* Positive Reinforcement: Help create a nurturing, inclusive environment where students feel safe, valued, and motivated to learn.
* Record Keeping: Maintain clear records of students' progress, behaviour, and interventions.

Key Requirements:

* Strong understanding of behaviour management strategies and intervention techniques.
* A compassionate and patient approach, with the ability to build rapport with students and staff alike.
* Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively as part of a team.
* Relevant qualifications in education, childcare, or SEN would be advantageous but not essential (e.g., Level 3 Teaching Assistant qualification).
* A proactive attitude and a desire to make a positive impact on students' lives.
