Education ⫽ Teacher Jobs

Studied Psychology and want to apply it in a real-world setting? Or looking for a role where you can genuinely support young people day-to-day? We're working with a number of specialist SEN schools across Winchester - and we're looking for Psychology graduates to step into Learning Mentor roles starting this September. Areas include Winchester and surrounding Hampshire locations. No school-based experience? That's absolutely fine. You don't need to have worked in a school before - just the right mindset, empathy, and the ability to build positive relationships. We'll support you with training, guidance, and experience in schools so you feel confident from day one. What the role involves

• Supporting students with additional needs, including SEMH (social, emotional, and mental health)
• Working with young people who may have experienced trauma
• Building trust and helping students feel safe and understood
• Supporting behaviour in a calm, consistent way
• Working closely with teaching staff and SEN teams
Why this role? This is a great way to take what you've learned in Psychology and apply it in a practical, meaningful setting. You'll gain hands-on experience supporting students with mental health needs and trauma, while developing skills that are highly relevant for careers in:
• Educational Psychology
• Clinical Psychology
• Teaching or SEN support
• Youth work or pastoral roles
  
  Psychology graduates
• Those interested in mental health, behaviour, and child development
• Individuals who are calm, patient, and empathetic
• Anyone looking to build experience before further study or training
  
  Full-time opportunities starting in September
• Weekly pay from £100 per day (PAYE)
• Flexible pathways into long-term roles
• Free training and upskilling, including modules in:
• Behaviour management
• SEN and SEMH support
