Looking for a Behaviour Support Worker job in Wakefield
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 Wakefield, 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
Support pupils who have experienced exclusion or find mainstream education challenging
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.
Who we're looking for
You'll be a great fit if you:
Stay calm and positive, even in challenging situations
Understand that behaviour is often a form of communication
Enjoy building strong, meaningful relationships with young people
Are patient, resilient and genuinely committed to helping pupils succeed
Can adapt your approach to meet individual needs
Experience in any of the following would be highly beneficial:
Behaviour Support Worker
Behaviour Mentor
Inclusion Support Worker
SEMH Teaching Assistant
SEND Teaching Assistant
Youth Worker
Learning Mentor
Support Worker
Care Worker
Teaching Assistant
Sports Coach
Residential Support Worker
Whether your experience comes from education, youth work, coaching, residential care or community support, we'd love to hear from you.

An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply for one
Two recent professional references
A good understanding of safeguarding and professional boundaries
A positive attitude, resilience and a genuine passion for supporting children and young people

A dedicated consultant who takes the time to understand your goals
Opportunities across SEND schools, Alternative Provisions (AP), Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) and mainstream schools
