Long Term Futures is seeking a resilient and confident Behaviour Mentor to provide 1:1 support for pupils with ASD, ADHD, anxiety and challenging behaviour in a supportive Birmingham SEND School.
The pupils in this school require consistent structure, strong boundaries and a calm, experienced adult who can respond confidently to behavioural incidents while maintaining a supportive and regulated learning environment. Experience supporting challenging behaviour is essential, and positive handling / restraint training is desirable for this role.
Whilst the right candidate will be firm but fair, empathy and the ability to build trusting relationships is essential.

* Supporting pupils to regulate emotions and remain engaged in learning
* Using structured routines, clear expectations and positive reinforcement
* Implementing behaviour plans and strategies agreed by the SENCo
* Using positive handling / restraint techniques when required in line with school policy
* Supporting learning during lessons while maintaining behaviour boundaries
* Helping the pupil develop resilience, self-regulation and positive social interaction
* Monitoring behaviour and feeding back to staff to ensure consistent support
Ideal Candidate Profile
* Experience supporting pupils with SEND & SEMH
* Positive handling / restraint training (e.g. Team Teach or similar)
* Calm, confident and able to remain regulated during behavioural incidents
* Strong de-escalation and behaviour management skills
* Able to build trust while maintaining clear and consistent boundaries
* Reliable and committed to a long-term placement
Why Work with Long Term Futures?
* Long-term placements offering stability and meaningful impact
* Weekly pay via our streamlined digital system
* Free CPD including Behaviour Management, SEMH and Positive Handling
* A dedicated consultant providing ongoing guidance and support
