Teaching Personnel are working alongside a large Secondary Academy in Bury who are currently looking for a Behaviour Support Assistant to join their team for the full academic year (September 2019-July 2020). Our client school have proposed an increase in the amount of students who will require additional support with their behaviour. Therefore, our partner school are looking to recruit more staff to ensure all students have the correct guidance and support they require.

• Full-time Behaviour Support Assistant role available to start immediately for the full academic year.
• Earn up to £300 per week, depending on experience and responsibilities involved.

Our partner school has recently incorporated a new Behaviour policy, providing staff with additional support and pupils with recognition and rewards for good behaviour. Our client has noted a huge difference in behaviour since incorporating this policy and therefore, wishes to involve it further. All cover staff are given full training regarding the school's behaviour policy prior to beginning work.
