Looking for a Behaviour Support Worker job in Bradford?

Some young people don't need tougher rules. They need someone who listens, understands, and helps them believe in themselves again.

Protocol Education is recruiting for a Behaviour & Inclusion Support Worker to join a specialist education setting in North Bradford, supporting children and young people with SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs), SEND, autism, ADHD, and behavioural needs.

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of pupils who may have experienced exclusion, struggled in mainstream education, or need extra support to re-engage with learning.

If you're passionate about helping young people overcome barriers and achieve their potential, we'd love to hear from you.

Your role

As a Behaviour & Inclusion Support Worker, you'll:

• Provide one-to-one and small group support for pupils with SEMH, SEND and additional needs
• Build positive, trusting relationships that encourage confidence and engagement

• Help children develop emotional regulation, resilience and positive behaviours
• Encourage participation in lessons and school activities
• Work alongside teachers, pastoral teams, SENCOs and other professionals to provide consistent support
• Create a calm, structured and inclusive learning environment where every pupil feels safe and valued

Every day brings something different, but every day offers the chance to make a lasting impact.

• Behaviour Mentor
