Youth Workers required

A Secondary Pupil Referral Unit in Sheffield are seeking Youth Workers to work across a number of their sites. The Pupil Referral Unit teach the same National Curriculum and offer the same level of qualifications as a mainstream school. However, as well as the academic work we help pupils address their emotional and behavioural barriers to learning and work with pupils on a 1:1 or small group basis to address their individual needs.

Students are based in in centres with around 16 pupils at one time with the centres spread throughout the city and work with only one key stage level of learning (KS4).

Each centre has experienced teachers and support staff who work with other professionals and services to provide a wrap round service to help your child develop and meet their specific needs. For example, their centre staff are qualified youth workers trained to deal specifically with the issues being a teenager brings.

If you are looking at applying for this role you must have:

• Experience as a youth worker
• Full Driving Licence and own transport
• Previous experience of supporting young people who display challenging behaviours

If you are looking for a role as a youth worker to help young people who display challenging behaviours and who have social, emotional and mental health difficulties then please send through your CV.
