Student Support Mentor

Join a supportive team where community sits at the heart of everything we do. We are looking for someone who is passionate about inspiring students to achieve their full potential. We require a Student Support Mentor to support individual and small groups of students and engage with them by delivering 1-1 small group work sessions to support and develop emotional, social and behavioural competences. The successful candidate will be someone who is approachable, supportive and empathetic. You will be resilient and hard-working and a keen team player, who equally is confident to work alone. Judged to be a Good School by Ofsted in April 2024, we are a mixed, non-selective 11-18 Foundation secondary school situated in the market town of Aylesbury and ten minutes from the Chiltern Hills - an area of outstanding natural beauty. We are close to Oxford, High Wycombe and Milton Keynes and surrounded by delightful market towns and char students learn the skills for success. We support our staff with a robust staff well-being programme. All staff have access to a wealth of free support resources and materials to ensure they feel supported and happy. Applicants are welcome to contact the school prior to interview. Further details about the school are available from the school website.
