Make a lasting impact in the classroom and beyond.

Vision for Education is currently seeking a Behaviour and Learning Coach to support secondary-aged students (11–17) in a mainstream school in Lancaster. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is passionate about supporting young people, especially those facing social, emotional, or behavioural challenges.

About the Role

As a Behaviour and Learning Coach, you’ll play a vital role in helping students engage with their learning by building positive relationships, developing their self-regulation skills, and supporting their academic and personal growth. You’ll work closely with teaching staff to deliver tailored support within the classroom and in small-group or 1:1 settings.

This role is ideal for someone with a background in youth work, mentoring, teaching assistance, or care, who wants to help young people thrive in a structured, mainstream educational setting.

Key Responsibilities

• Support students with behaviour that can present as challenging or disengaged

• Assist in the delivery of tailored strategies to improve behaviour and learning outcomes

• Build strong, trusting relationships with students to improve engagement

• Promote emotional resilience and support students’ wellbeing

• Work collaboratively with teachers, SENCOs, and pastoral teams

About the School

This mainstream secondary school values inclusion, pastoral care, and holistic development. You’ll join a committed team of educators and support staff who work together to create a safe and supportive learning environment.

Requirements

To be considered for the role of Behaviour and Learning Coach, you will:

• Be resilient, patient, and empathetic

• Be passionate about making a difference to young people’s lives

• Understand Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs

• Ideally have experience working with young people in schools, youth work, or care settings

• A Teaching Assistant qualification (e.g. Level 2) is desirable but not essential

What We Offer

• Weekly pay via PAYE

• A guaranteed pay scheme (subject to qualifying criteria)

• Access to ongoing CPD (including Team Teach, safeguarding & child protection training)

• Supportive consultants who are experts in the education sector

• Opportunities for the role to become long-term or permanent

• A generous refer-a-friend bonus scheme
