Education Mental Health Practitioner/ Child Wellbeing Practitioner
Exciting Opportunity for Education Mental Health Practitioners (EMHP) or Child Wellbeing Practitioners (CWP)
We’re seeking qualified Education Mental Health Practitioners (EMHP) or Child Wellbeing Practitioners (CWP) to join our Aldershot Mental Health Support Team (MHST). This is a chance to contribute to the NHS Long Term Plan’s vision of integrated mental health support in schools.
Note: Only applicants holding a diploma in Children’s Wellbeing Practice or Education Mental Health Practice and registered (or eligible to register) with BABCP will be shortlisted.
About the Role
Each MHST is based in a cluster of schools within Surrey’s 11 boroughs (Epsom, Spelthorne, Reigate & Banstead, Elmbridge, Surrey Heath, Woking, Runnymede, Guildford, Waverley, Tandridge and Mole Valley) and North East Hampshire (Aldershot & Rushmoor).
As a member of this team, you’ll deliver brief, evidence-based CBT interventions tailored to children and young people facing mental health challenges. You’ll work both in schools and community locations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This role suits a candidate who passionately believes in early intervention to support young people’s emotional wellbeing and enable them to thrive.
Responsibilities
You will be expected to:
- Manage a caseload, providing mental health care to children and young people
- Conduct holistic mental health and wellbeing assessments
- Collaborate with Primary Mental Health Workers, CAMHS, schools, and GPs to support young people effectively
- Deliver high-quality, outcome-focused CBT in individual sessions, workshops, and groups
- Work alongside schools to develop and implement a whole-school approach to mental health and wellbeing
- Offer professional consultation and guidance to educational professionals
