A specialist school near Ascot is looking for a recent Psychology or Criminology graduate to join their dedicated team and support students managing social, emotional, and mental health needs. This is an excellent role for a graduate aiming for a future career in psychology, with a genuine passion for helping children with psychological challenges.
The students at this school come from a variety of backgrounds, with some facing difficulties related to trauma, anxiety, attachment issues, and neglect. They need assistance in processing their emotions and developing strategies to manage them independently. As a supportive team member, you will play a vital role in helping them build emotional resilience and self-regulation skills.
