The Young People You'll Meet Won't Remember Every Lesson.
But they'll remember the people who never gave up on them.
As a Student Support Mentor, you'll become one of those people.
Working within specialist SEMH schools, PRUs, Alternative Provision academies and community-based programmes, you'll support young people aged 11-19 who may have experienced trauma, disrupted education or significant barriers to learning.
You'll help them rebuild confidence.
Develop resilience.
Celebrate progress.
And believe that education still has a place in their future.
Your role
Every day will look different, but your impact will remain the same.
