As an Engagement & Wellbeing Coach, you’ll be the friendly, steady, and supportive presence our students need. You’ll meet them at home or out in the community, helping them rebuild confidence, develop emotional literacy, and re-engage with learning.

It’s a role where no two days are the same - one day you might be encouraging a student to try something new, the next you’re helping them plan a positive transition back into school or college. Always, you’ll be making a real difference.
