Youth Worker / Classroom Behaviour Mentor | Blackpool Secondary

24 Days Old

Location: Blackpool, Lancashire (FY1 - FY4) Salary: £24,000 - £29,500 per annum (Pro-rata / Term-Time Only) Contract: Full-Time Category: Education / Social Care / Youth Work Start Date: ASAP or September 2026
The Role: Impact Beyond the Community Centre
Are you a Blackpool Youth Worker looking to take your skills into a stable, school-based environment? We are hiring a Behaviour Mentor to work directly within our secondary classrooms.
This isn't a traditional teaching role. We need someone with "Blackpool grit"-someone who can build instant rapport with teenagers, de-escalate challenging situations, and manage classroom dynamics so that learning can happen. You will be the bridge between the playground and the lesson, using your youth-work toolkit to support students with SEMH (Social, Emotional, and Mental Health) needs.
Key Responsibilities
Active Behaviour Management: Use your Youth Work experience to identify triggers and de-escalate tension before it disrupts the class.
Mentorship: Lead 1:1 and small group sessions for students who struggle with mainstream secondary expectations.
Alternative Provision (AP) Approach: Work alongside Teachers to ensure the classroom is a safe, calm, and productive space for all Blackpool learners.
Reporting: Track student engagement and work with the pastoral team to support EHCP (Education, Health and Care Plan) targets.
